After commit cff49d58f57e ("spi: Unify error codes by replacing -ENOTSUPP with
-EOPNOTSUPP"), our SPI NOR flashes would stop probing with the following
visible in the kernel log:

[    2.196300] brcmstb_qspi f0440920.qspi: using bspi-mspi mode
[    2.210295] spi-nor: probe of spi1.0 failed with error -95

It turns out that the check in spi_mem_exec_op() was changed to check
for -ENOTSUPP (old error code) or -EOPNOTSUPP (new error code), but this
means that for drivers that were converted, the second condition is now
true, and we stop falling through like we used to. Fix the error to
check for neither error being neither -ENOTSUPP *nor* -EOPNOTSUPP.

Ha, thank you!

FWIW in next, there is commit
e63aef9c9121e ("spi: spi-mem: add statistics support to ->exec_op() calls")
that probably will conflict with this one.

Also, - not for this patch - but with that logic, spi_mem_exec_op()
might return EOPNOTSUPP *or* ENOTSUPP, even for drivers which might
still return ENOTSUPP, because there is one condition in
spi_mem_exec_op() which will always return EOPNOTSUPP. That is
somewhat confusing, no?

I agree. I suppose it would be better to do:

     if (!ret)
        return 0;

     if (ret == -ENOTSUPP || ret == -EOPNOTSUPP)
        return -EOPNOTSUPP;


But with e63aef9c9121e ("spi: spi-mem: add statistics support to ->exec_op() calls") applied, would not that mean duplicating the statistics gathering, or were the statistics gathering only intended for when ret == 0?
