    mtd: spi-nor: Potential oops on error path in quad_enable()
    
    Before commit cff959958832 ("mtd: spi-nor: introduce SPI 1-2-2 and SPI
    1-4-4 protocols") then we treated 1 as -EINVAL in the caller but after
    that commit we changed to propagate the return.  My static checker
    complains that it's eventually passed to an ERR_PTR() and later
    dereferenced, but I'm not totally certain if that's true.  Regardless,
    returning 1 is wrong.
