I'm still not sure what to do here. Have a look at all the other
vendor modules in spi-nor. they are all prefixed with the vendor
name? E.g. there is a sst_write() which is far more likely to
cause a conflict. So should we rename all these functions? Or
do we just take our chance that it might have a conflict in
the future (with an easy fix to rename the function then). TBH
I doubt there will be a global symbol "xilinx_read_sr()".

But I care for consistency, so having some named xilinx_, sst_,
st_micron_ and some spi_nor_read_xsr sounds and looks awful.
