[RFC PATCH 1/2] mtd: spi-nor: atmel: remove global SNOR_F_HAS_LOCK

From: Michael Walle
Date: Thu Oct 01 2020 - 08:28:46 EST


This is considered bad for the following reasons:
(1) We only support the block protection with BPn bits for write
protection. Not all Atmel 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 don'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:
- AT26F004
- AT25SL321
- AT45DB081D
