[PATCH 5/6] mtd: spi-nor: add generic flash driver

Our SFDP is parsing is everything we need to support all basic
operations of a flash device. If the flash isn't found in our in-kernel
flash database, gracefully fall back to a driver described solely by its
SFDP tables.

It is still recommended to add the flash to the in-kernel database.
First, we get a proper partname and secondly, for all features not
described by the SFDP like OTP we need the entry anyway.
