This series is the follow up on the single patch
mtd: spi-nor: implement OTP erase for Winbond and similar flashes

Pratyush Yadav discovered a likely problem with bigger flashes, the address
to access the security registers is either 3 or 4 byte (at least for
winbond flashes).

Changes since v5:
 - squash new patch into "Fixes:" patch

Changes since v4:
 - add new patch to get rid taking the spi lock if length is zero. Please
   note, that I didn't squash this into the "Fixes:" patch because it is
   unrelated to the actual bug.
 - add comment which explains that we could also branch on an error in
   spi_nor_mtd_otp_range_is_locked()
 - check zero length in spi_nor_mtd_otp_erase() and return early before
   taking the lock

Changes since v3:
 - new patch to check for read-only OTP regions before writing
 - clarify term "security register"
 - don't combine lock and erase functions anymore. there are now
   more difference than similarities.

Changes since v2:
 - fix 3/4 byte mode access
 - use spi_nor_erase_sector() by swapping the nor->erase_opcode
 - use more consistent wording regarding the security registers

Changes since v1:
- fixed kernel doc

Michael Walle (4):
  mtd: spi-nor: otp: fix access to security registers in 4 byte mode
  mtd: spi-nor: otp: use more consistent wording
  mtd: spi-nor: otp: return -EROFS if region is read-only
  mtd: spi-nor: otp: implement erase for Winbond and similar flashes
