On a typical end product, a vendor may choose to secure some regions in the NAND memory which are supposed to stay intact between FW upgrades. The access to those regions will be blocked by a secure element like Trustzone. So the normal world software like Linux kernel should not touch these regions (including reading). So this series adds a property for declaring such secure regions in DT so that the driver can skip touching them. While at it, the Qcom NANDc DT binding is also converted to YAML format. Thanks, Mani Changes in v2: * Moved the secure-regions property to generic NAND binding as a NAND chip property and renamed it as "nand-secure-regions".
