Commit hash should be of 12 digits.

This is not a changelog. Changelog should mention what has been changed
between versions from v1 to v4. For example:

Changes in v4:

* Incorporated AAA comments from X
* Changed a local variable

Changes in v3:

* Incorporated BBB comments from X

Changes in v2:

* Incorporated CCC comments from X

Sorry, I don't understand how it can work. For reading a codeword like
0, you are reading the last codeword here if the controller is v2. And
you'll continue to read the last codeword only for any codeword
requested :/

Thanks,

This case is only applicable when we will configure number of code
words to 1.
These registers "QPIC_NAND_READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_n" &
"QPIC_NAND_READ_LOCATION_n"
are only used to copy data into memory i.e our local buffer. So this
last CW interpretation from
QPIC controller to memory not for Flash to QPIC controller.
If number of CW configured to 1 means QPIC will treat this a last CW ,
so copy the data from QPIC to local memory
buffer , we have to use QPIC_NAND_READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_n register
instead of QPIC_NAND_READ_LOCATION_n regsiter,
Since there is separate register from QPIC V2 onwards to read get last
CW "QPIC_NAND_READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_n".
