There was an earlier comment (in 1st RFC version of the patch), where
you said probably it is not safer to assign mtd lock and unlock
pointers in 'nand_scan_tail', as not all flashes have this feature.

So, I exported these so that a driver can use these by overwriting mtd
lock and unlock pointers in its probe.
