[PATCH] Module argument to control whether intel-spi-pci attempts to turn the SPI flash chip writeable

[Daniel Gutson]

Currently, intel-spi has a module argument that controls whether the driver
attempts to turn the SPI flash chip writeable. The default value
is FALSE (don't try to make it writeable).
However, this flag applies only for a number of devices, coming from the
platform driver, whereas the devices detected through the PCI driver
(intel-spi-pci) are not subject to this check since the configuration
takes place in intel-spi-pci which doesn't have an argument.

That's why I propose this patch to add such argument to intel-spi-pci,
so the user can control whether the driver tries to make the chip
writeable or not, being the default FALSE as is the argument of
intel-spi.
