Hi Vignesh,

I've tested your "[U-Boot,RFT,v2,0/3] spi-nor: spi-nor-ids: Fix 4 Byte addressing " series
applies on the latest master (879396a2405).
'axs103_defconfig' was used without changes.

Probe/read/write/erase work for n25q512ax3.

Lock/unlock don't work, so here is debug log:
(I've tried to run lock/unlock after unlock/lock and write/erase after lock, so I guess it will cover all combinations useful for debug)

Did you verify that area is indeed unlocked by writing data and then reading it back?
I was able to find a board with mt25qu512a which is same as n25q512a in terms of locking
I see it works fine:

=> sf probe
SF: Detected n25q512a with page size 256 Bytes, erase size 4 KiB, total 64 MiB
=> sf protect lock 0 0x4000000;  echo $?
0
=> sf write 0x82000000 0x3FF0000 0x100
device 0 offset 0x3ff0000, size 0x100
SF: 256 bytes @ 0x3ff0000 Written: ERROR -5

If you still see failures wrt locking, could you provide debug logs from
spi_mem_exec_op() (in drivers/spi/spi-mem.c) just like last time?
