Follow-up on discussion in https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/10/4/41

Changes since from rfc v1/v2:
 - added access protection for all device access hooks in mtd_info.
 - added Suggested-by to [1/3] patch.
 - removed refereces to commit ef347c0cfd61 ("mtd: rawnand: gpmi: Implement exec_op")
   from commit msg as commit 013e6292aaf5 ("mtd: rawnand: Simplify the locking") is 
   to be blamed.
 - tested on a kernel with LOCKDEP enabled.

@Miquel: I havn't covered every ioctl, to me it looks like they havn't
direct device access.

One (small) issue still present. gpmi_nand.c uses the rwsem before it's
initialized. Seems cumbersome to have every mtd/nand driver to call
init_waitqueue_head() and init_rwsem(). Could we somehow move the call
to mtd_set_dev_defaults() before nand_create_bbt()?
