[PATCH 28/30] mtd: spi-nor: Add support for locking on ISSI nor flashes

From: Venkatesh Yadav Abbarapu <venkatesh.abbarapu at amd.com>

ISSI chips implements locking in (power-of-two multiple of) 64K
blocks, not as a fraction of the chip's size. Bit 5 in the status
register is not a top/bottom select bit, but instead a fourth value
bit, allowing locking between 2^0 and 2^14 64K blocks (so up to 1GiB),
either from top or bottom.

The top/bottom select is instead done via a bit in the function
register, which is OTP, so once set to use bottom protect, one cannot
use top. On top of that, reading the function register uses a
opcode SPINOR_OP_RDFR (0x48) and writing to the function register uses the
opcode SPINOR_OP_WRFR(0x42).

Here's an attempt at implementing a locking feature for ISSI flash memory
devices. This implementation has been rigorously tested and proven to work
on the chip used in our boards. Additionally, after examining data sheets
for various other ISSI chips, it appears that they follow a similar
behavior.

Used "bottom protect" to test the lock and unlock functionality on the
Versal Tenzing board. Please note that the Block Protection table is
specific to the IS25LP01G, which has a size of 128MB, a sector size
of 64KB, and comprises 2048 sectors.
