SPI NOR framework

How to propose a new flash addition
-----------------------------------
Most SPI NOR flashes comply with the JEDEC JESD216
Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (SFDP) standard. SFDP describes
the functional and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a
standard set of internal read-only parameter tables.
The SPI NOR driver queries the SFDP tables in order to determine the
flash's parameters and settings. If the flash defines the SFDP tables
it's likely that you won't need a flash entry at all, and instead
rely on the generic flash driver which probes the flash solely based
on its SFDP data. All one has to do is to specify the "jedec,spi-nor"
compatible in the device tree.
There are cases however where you need to define an explicit flash
entry. This typically happens when the flash has settings or support
that is not covered by the SFDP tables (e.g. Block Protection), or
when the flash contains mangled SFDP data. If the later, one needs
to implement the ``spi_nor_fixups`` hooks in order to amend the SFDP
parameters with the correct values.
Minimum testing requirements
-----------------------------
Do all the tests from below and paste them in the commit's comments
section, after the ``---`` marker.
1) Specify the controller that you used to test the flash and specify
the frequency at which the flash was operated, e.g.::
This flash is populated on the X board and was tested at Y
frequency using the Z (put compatible) SPI controller.
2) Dump the sysfs entries and print the md5/sha1/sha256 SFDP checksum::

Please dump the SFDP tables using ``xxd -p``. It enables us to do
the reverse operation and convert the hexdump to binary with
``xxd -rp``. Dumping the SFDP data with ``hexdump -Cv`` is accepted,
but less desirable.
3) Dump debugfs data::

4) Use `mtd-utils <https://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git>`__
and verify that erase, read and page program operations work fine::

If the flash comes erased by default and the previous erase was ignored,
we won't catch it, thus test the erase again::
root@1:~# mtd_debug erase /dev/mtd0 0 2097152
