The RWW wait helpers must not block while evaluating the wait
condition. In the current code, spi_nor_rww_start_exclusive() can leave
nor->lock held on a false return. Also, if a killable RWW wait is
interrupted after spi_nor_prep(), the controller setup must be undone.
Patch 1 switches the four RWW start helpers to conditional scoped mutex
guards so the wait condition never sleeps and the mutex is always
released before returning.
Patch 2 unprepares the controller on interrupted waits in the three
spi_nor_prep_and_lock() helpers.

mtd: spi-nor: core: Unprepare after interrupted RWW wait
