Subject: [PATCH v6 2/5] mtd: spi-nor: sst: remove global protection flag

This is considered bad for the following reasons:
 (1) We only support the block protection with BPn bits for write
     protection. Not all SST parts support this.
 (2) Newly added flash chip will automatically inherit the "has
     locking" support and thus needs to explicitly tested. Better
     be opt-in instead of opt-out.
 (3) There are already supported flashes which doesn't support
     the locking scheme. So I assume this wasn't properly tested
     before adding that chip; which enforces my previous argument
     that locking support should be an opt-in.

Remove the global flag and add individual flags to all flashes
which supports BP locking. In particular the following flashes
don't support the BP scheme:
 - SST26VF016B
 - SST26WF016B
 - SST26VF064B
