Besides the fact that nowadays we prefer to see binding conversions to
yaml before adding anything, I don't think this will fly.
I'm not sure exactly what "disable block protection" means, we
already have similar properties like "lock" and "secure-regions", not
sure they will fit but I think it's worth checking.
Otherwise, why would you disable the block protection? What does it
mean exactly? I'm not in favor of a Macronix-specific property here.
Thanks,
Miquèl
