i implemented write support.  like the subject says ... not sure what

there is no state maintained in the hardware.  the pos gets updated
only when a half-page actually gets processed.  so there is no
"later".

will do, thanks

> You should change (and check) allow_writes under the mutex anyway.

not really.  the mutex is to restrict access to the OTP hardware, not
driver state.  because there is none.  access to allow_writes is
atomic in the hardware anyways.

thanks for the review
