[PATCH 22/23] mtd: spi-nor: Add Global Block Unlock support

From: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus at microchip.com>

Add Global Block Unlock support as an optimization for unlocking the
entire memory array. A Global Block-Protection Unlock command offers
a single command cycle that unlocks the entire memory array.

Status Register Block Protection support does not imply the support for
the Global Block Unlock Command. Microchip's SST26VF064B does support
the 98h command, but use dedicated registers for the individual block
protection, and not the Status Register, as in the stm_lock/unlock case.
Call spi_nor_unlock_global_block_protection() in spi_nor_unlock() as an
optimization for unlocking the entire memory array.

Note that the Global Block Unlock command has different names depending
on the manufacturer, but always the same command value: 98h. Macronix's
MX25U12835F names it Gang Block Unlock, Winbound's W25Q128FV names it
Global Block Unlock and Microchip's SST26VF064B names it Global Block
Protection Unlock.

We can't determine this support purely by manufacturer type and it's
not autodetectable by anything like SFDP, so make a new flag for it:
UNLOCK_GLOBAL_BLOCK. This flag can be set just at per-chip level, we
don't need a SNOR_F_ correspondent.
