I tried setting spi-tx-bus-width and spi-rx-bus-width to either 0 or 1
and WP still doesn't work.
For this chip, quad_enable will be set to spi_nor_sr2_bit1_quad_enable
(QER flag is BFPT_DWORD15_QER_SR2_BIT1_BUGGY)[1]

spi_nor_write_sr_and_check() calls
spi_nor_write_16bit_sr_and_check()[2] and the function sets QE bit if
quad_enable is not NULL.

Setting spi-{tx,rx}-bus-width still falls to this function and cases.

Right, https://www.gigadevice.com.cn/Public/Uploads/uploadfile/files/20220714/DS-00012-GD25LQ64C-Rev3.4.pdf
is a more proper datasheet source. The QE description is also in page
13.
