Please don't merge this patch.

We worked on a patch that will unlock _all_ intel parts that have this
behavior in a more acceptable way.  It was discussed back in November.

I thought Justin had finished running this through review but I don't
see it now.  So I thought you had Acked this patch Nicolas, I can't
find where.  Was I mistaken?


Anyway I added it to my freshly updated git tree
"git://git.infradead.org/users/jehulber/mtd.git" (with a possibly
unearned Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre)


For visual review only....

[MTD] Unlocking all Intel flash that is locked on power up.

Patch for unlocking all Intel flash that has instant locking on power up.
The patch has been tested on Intel M18, P30 and J3D Strata Flash.
  1.    The automatic unlocking can be disabled for a particular partition
         in the map or the command line.
     a. For the bit mask in the map it should look like:
         .mask_flags   = MTD_POWERUP_LOCK,
     b. For the command line parsing it should look like:
         mtdparts=0x80000(bootloader)lk
  2.    This will only unlock parts with instant individual block locking.
         Intel parts with legacy unlocking will not be unlocked.
