MYIR's SAM9X5 board has not enabled SPI driver by default. If you want to use, you need to enable SPI driver when compiling the kernel. Please follow below steps:
1. Open menuconfig
$ make ARCH=arm myir_MYD-SAM9X5_4.3lcd_defconfig $ make menuconfig
2. Please find the item "Support most SPI Flash chips (AT26DF, M25P, W25X, ...)", i.e. "CONFIG_MTD_M25P80" as in below location and open it.
