Chances are pretty good that all you would need to do is add an entry
for this device in to the collection at:
  devs/flash/amd/am29xxxxx/current/include/flash_am29xxxxx_parts.inl
You'll also need to update the CDL at
  devs/flash/amd/am29xxxxx/current/cdl/flash_amd_am29xxxxx.cdl
and set up your platform to "require" this new part.

Look at how other platforms use various AMD parts and at the parts
table for how it is structured.
