Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mtd: m25p80: Make jedec_probe() return proper errno
 values

spi_write_then_read() may return its own return codes (e.g. -EIO),
so let's propagate the value down to the probe().

Also, remove jedec == 0 check, it isn't needed as nowadays we use
dedicated SPI device IDs for non-JEDEC flashes.
