[PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: Support controllers with limited TX FIFO size

[Yogesh Gaur <yogeshnarayan.gaur@xxxxxxx>]

Some SPI controllers can't write nor->page_size bytes in a single
step because their TX FIFO is too small.

Allow nor->write() to return a size that is smaller than the requested
write size to gracefully handle this case.
