Subject: [PATCH 3/5] mtd: spi-nor: add Global Block Unlock support

From: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus@...rochip.com>

To avoid inadvertent writes during power-up, some flashes are
write-protected by default after a power-on reset cycle.
A Global Block-Protection Unlock command offers a single
command cycle that unlocks the entire memory array. This is
identical with what other nor flashes are doing by clearing
the block protection bits from the status register: disable
the write protection after a power-on reset cycle.

We can't determine this purely by manufacturer type and it's not
autodetectable by anything like SFDP, so make a new flag for it:
UNLOCK_GLOBAL_BLOCK.

Note that the Global Block Unlock command has different names
depending on the manufacturer, but always the same command value:
0x98. Macronix's MX25U12835F names it Gang Block Unlock,
Winbound's W25Q128FV names it Global Block Unlock and
Microchip's SST26VF064B names it Global Block Protection Unlock.
