mtd: spi-nor: core: Check written SR value in spi_nor_write_16bit_sr_and_check()
[ Upstream commit 70dd83d737d8900b2d98db6dc6b928c596334d37 ]
Read back Status Register 1 to ensure that the written byte match the
received value and return -EIO if read back test failed.
Without this patch, spi_nor_write_16bit_sr_and_check() only check the
second half of the 16bit. It causes errors like spi_nor_sr_unlock()
return success incorrectly when spi_nor_write_16bit_sr_and_check()
doesn't write SR successfully.
