Clarify for what the flash_info flags are used for. Split them in four categories and a bool: 1/ FLAGS: flags that indicate support that is not defined by the JESD216 standard in its SFDP tables. 2/ NO_SFDP_FLAGS: these flags are used when the flash does not define the SFDP tables. These flags indicate support that can be discovered via SFDP. Used together with SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP flag. 3/ FIXUP_FLAGS: flags that indicate support that can be discovered via SFDP ideally, but can not be discovered for this particular flash because the SFDP table that indicates this support is not defined by the flash. In case the table for this support is defined but has wrong values, one should instead use a post_sfdp() hook to set the SNOR_F equivalent flag. 4/ MFR_FLAGS: manufacturer private flags. Used in the manufacturer fixup hooks to differentiate support between flashes of the same manufacturer. 5/ PARSE_SFDP: sets info->parse_sfdp to true. All flash_info entries that support SFDP should be converted to set info->parse_sfdp to true. SPI NOR flashes that statically declare one of the SPI_NOR_{DUAL, QUAD, OCTAL, OCTAL_DTR}_READ flags and do not support the RDSFDP command are gratuiously receiving the RDSFDP command in the attempt of parsing the SFDP tables. It is not desirable to issue commands that are not supported, so introduce PARSE_SFDP to help on this situation. New flash additions/updates should be declared/updated to use either PARSE_SFDP or SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP. Once all the flash_info entries are converted to use SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP or PARSE_SFDP, we can get rid of the SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP flag and use just the bool nor->info->parse_sfdp to determine whether to parse SFDP or not. SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP flag is kept just as a way to differentiate whether a flash is converted to the new flags logic or not. Support that can be discovered when parsing SFDP should not be duplicated by explicit flags at flash declaration. All the flash parameters will be discovered when parsing SFDP. Sometimes manufacturers wrongly define some fields in the SFDP tables. If that's the case, SFDP data can be amended with the fixups() hooks. It is not common, but if the SFDP tables are entirely wrong, and it does not worth the hassle to tweak the SFDP parameters by using the fixups hooks, or if the flash does not define the SFDP tables at all, then statically init the flash with the SPI_NOR_SKIP_SFDP flag and specify the rest of flash capabilities with the flash info flags. With time, we want to convert all flashes to use PARSE_SFDP and stop triggering the SFDP parsing with the SPI_NOR_{DUAL, QUAD, OCTAL*}_READ flags. Getting rid of the SPI_NOR_{OCTAL, OCTAL_DTR}_READ trigger is easily achievable, the rest are a long term goal. Manufacturer specific flags like USE_CLSR, USE_FSR, SPI_NOR_XSR_RDY, will be removed in a future series. No functional changes intended in this patch.
