On the same card, with same NOR flash memory I'm running two different
kernel versions.
First version is quite old - 4.19.239 which does not support mt25qu256a
and therefore device is detected as n25q256ax1.
Second version is 6.1.0-rc1 and it detects the same device as mt25qu256a.
So I was able to dump SFDP when running version 6.1.0-rc1, but not when
running 4.19.239 which does not support the sysfs to dump the SFPD
information.
I checked that locking works with my changes when running on both kernel
versions.
