Add support for this READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_n register.

In the case of QPIC v2, codewords 0, 1 and 2 will be accessed through
READ_LOCATION_n, while codeword 3 will be accessed through
READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_n.
"

When I read my own sentence, I feel that there is something wrong.
If there are only 4 codewords, I guess a QPIC v2 is able to use
READ_LOCATION_3 or READ_LOCATION_LAST_CW_0 interchangeably. Isn't it?

I guess the point of having these "last_cw_n" registers is to support
up to 8 codewords, am I wrong? If this the case, the current patch
completely fails doing that I don't get the point of such change.

Not sure this is really useful, it's probably better to drop this
helper and just use...

... if (nandc->props->qpic_v2 && qcom_nandc_is_lastcw()) here.
