Convert the SPI-NOR binding to DT schema format. Like other memory chips,
the compatible strings are a mess with vendor prefixes not being used
consistently and some compatibles not documented. The resulting schema
passes on 'compatible' checks for most in tree users with the exception
of some oddballs.
I dropped the 'm25p.*-nonjedec' compatible strings as these don't appear
to be used anywhere.

Commit 59b356ffd0b0 ("mtd: m25p80: restore the status of SPI flash when
exiting") is the latest from a long history of attempts to add reboot
handling to handle stateful addressing modes on SPI flash. Some prior
mostly-related discussions:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2013-March/046343.html
[PATCH 1/3] mtd: m25p80: utilize dedicated 4-byte addressing commands
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/barebox/2014-September/020682.html
[RFC] MTD m25p80 3-byte addressing and boot problem
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-February/057683.html
[PATCH 2/2] m25p80: if supported put chip to deep power down if not used
Previously, attempts to add reboot-time software reset handling were
rejected, but the latest attempt was not.
Quick summary of the problem:
Some systems (e.g., boot ROM or bootloader) assume that they can read
initial boot code from their SPI flash using 3-byte addressing. If the
flash is left in 4-byte mode after reset, these systems won't boot. The
above patch provided a shutdown/remove hook to attempt to reset the
addressing mode before we reboot. Notably, this patch misses out on
huge classes of unexpected reboots (e.g., crashes, watchdog resets).
Unfortunately, it is essentially impossible to solve this problem 100%:
if your system doesn't know how to reset the SPI flash to power-on
defaults at initialization time, no amount of software can really rescue
you -- there will always be a chance of some unexpected reset that
leaves your flash in an addressing mode that your boot sequence didn't
expect.
While it is not directly harmful to perform hacks like the
aforementioned commit on all 4-byte addressing flash, a
properly-designed system should not need the hack -- and in fact,
providing this hack may mask the fact that a given system is indeed
broken. So this patch attempts to apply this unsound hack more narrowly,
providing a strong suggestion to developers and system designers that
this is truly a hack. With luck, system designers can catch their errors
early on in their development cycle, rather than applying this hack long
term. But apparently enough systems are out in the wild that we still
have to provide this hack.
Document a new device tree property to denote systems that do not have a
proper hardware (or software) reset mechanism, and apply the hack (with
a loud warning) only in this case.

This reverts commit b07815d4eaf658b683c345d6e643895a20d92f29.
The reverted commit was merged into v4-15-rc1 by mistake: it was taken
from the IMX tree but the patch has never been sent to linux-mtd nor
reviewed by any spi-nor maintainers.
Actually, it would have been rejected since we add new values for the
'compatible' DT property only for SPI NOR memories that don't support
the JEDEC READ ID op code (0x9F).
Both en25s64 and sst25wf040b support the JEDEC READ ID op code, hence
should use the "jedec,spi-nor" string alone as 'compatible' value.

using JEDEC READ ID opcode.

The MR25 family doesn't support JEDEC, so they need explicit mentioning
in the list of supported spi IDs. This makes it possible to add these
using for example:
compatible = "everspin,mr25h40";
There was already an entry for mr25h256. Move that one out of the "keep
for compatibility" section and put in a new group for Everspin MRAMs.

Pull the supported chip names from drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c and stop
pointing readers to Linux code.
Also (although I see this habit repeated throughout the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ tree), stop using the title "driver"
in this file, when we're trying explicitly to describe hardware, not
software.

In commit 8ff16cf77ce3 ("Documentation: devicetree: m25p80: add "nor-jedec"
binding"), we added a generic "nor-jedec" binding to catch all
mostly-compatible SPI NOR flash which can be detected via the READ ID
opcode (0x9F). This was discussed and reviewed at the time, however
objections have come up since then as part of this discussion:
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20150511224646.GJ32500@ld-irv-0074
It seems the parties involved agree that "jedec,spi-nor" does a better
job of capturing the fact that this is SPI-specific, not just any NOR
flash.
This binding was only merged for v4.1-rc1, so it's still OK to change
the naming.
At the same time, let's move the documentation to a better name.
Next up: stop referring to code (drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c) from the
documentation.
