[PATCH v3 12/13] mtd: spi-nor: extract read op template construction into helper

From: Pratyush Yadav <pratyush at kernel.org>

spi_nor_spimem_read_data() and spi_nor_create_read_dirmap() both
open-coded the same sequence: build the read spi_mem_op, call
spi_nor_spimem_setup_op(), convert dummy cycles to bytes, and—in the
dirmap case—explicitly patch data.buswidth because setup_op skips it
when data.nbytes is zero.

Introduce spi_nor_spimem_get_read_op() to centralise this logic.
Initialising the op with data.nbytes set to a non-zero value ensures
spi_nor_spimem_setup_op() populates data.buswidth, removing the need
for the manual override in the dirmap path. The dirmap template is
initialised directly from the helper; direct-read callers overwrite
addr.val, data.nbytes, and data.buf.in before submitting.
