From: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 151c6b49d679872d6fc0b50e0ad96303091694a2 upstream. Even if SPI_NOR_NO_ERASE was set, one could still send erase opcodes to the flash. It is not recommended to send unsupported opcodes to flashes. Fix the logic and do not set mtd->_erase when SPI_NOR_NO_ERASE is specified. With this users will not be able to issue erase opcodes to flashes and instead they will recive an -ENOTSUPP error.
