[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/5] sf: Add status register protection mechanism

[George McCollister <george.mccollister@gmail.com>]

Many SPI NOR flash devices support status register protection through
one or two status register protection bits. Status register protection
enables protection of block protect and other bits from manipulation.

So far, four different status register protection methods have been
observed:

 Software         - Writes to the status register are blocked until
                    a write enable bit is set by software.
 Hardware         - Writes to the status register are blocked while
                    a pin is in a certain state.
 Power            - Writes to the status register are blocked until
                    the next power-down.
 One Time Program - Writes to the status register are permanently
                    blocked.
