The variable err is not updated since the previous check on it, so
the subsequent check on err is redundant and can be removed.

Sorry but this was done on purpose to prepare the structure of the
source code so it's more easy to add later parsing of optional SFDP
tables such as the 4-byte address instruction set table or sector erase
map table.
At that time each case of the switch statement should update the value
of 'err'.
Best regards,
Cyrille

This is hard to guess, could you add a comment so the next well meaning person
has a chance to know that this is onn purpose ?
