Stuffs for using dual/quad lines are already present in the SPI 
framework(3.12-rc1)
Here is the patch[1] that enables quad mode and are more or less use
the ideas you suggested above. The patch is based on 3.12-rc1.

Your board file should define "spi-tx-bus-width" and "spi-rx-bus-width". 
Based on this,
spi->mode will be set in drivers/spi/spi.c. Once this mode is set, we 
can use
this in our m25p80 driver to enable quad mode and to set the mtd read 
pointer to
quad read.

Next point is the communication between the mtd layer and the qspi 
driver layer about
the read command (Normal/dual/quad) to use. For this, there is already a 
field added in
spi_transfer(tx_nbits/rx_nbits). We can set this field to 1, 2 and 4 
etc.. for normal, dual
and quad read.

Subject: [PATCH] drivers: mtd: devices: Add quad read support.

Some flash also support quad read mode.
Adding support for adding quad mode in m25p80.
