This could be a problem if the 'reg' property is not set, since that

<title>mtd: physmap_of: add a hook for Versatile write protection</title>

<id>b0afd44bc192ff4c0e90a5fc1724350bcfc32b33</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to support device tree probing of Versatile NOR flash
chips, there must be a way to add the VPP (write protection)
enable/disable callback. The register in question is in the
system controllers of these machines. Apart from this quirk,
the ARM flash chips are standard CFI flash chips from various
vendors.

Additionally, the Integrator/AP require you to set up the external
bus interface (EBI) to allow writes to the chip select where the
flash memory is connected.

Solve this by looking for the arm,versatile-flash compatible
string in the flash device tree node. In the driver,
add a special hook to check for the various Versatile syscons and
register a callback for .set_vpp() if this compatible is present.

Provide a special Kconfig entry for the addon hook so it will
not be compiled in if the Versatile boards are not supported.
Stubs in the header file make sure the impact will be zero on
other platforms. (Compilers optimze this out.)

With this patch, a large slew of ARM board file code can be
removed.

If there is more than one map region for this device, then the
concatenated MTD will not have a parent device assigned to it -- only
the sub-devices (which are not actually registered with the framework)
will have their parents assigned. Let's assign the concatenated device
correctly.

We should assign the MTD dev.of_node instead of the parser data field.
This gets us the equivalent partition parser behavior with fewer special
fields and parameter passing.

Also convert several of these to mtd_device_register(), since we don't
need the 2nd and 3rd parameters anymore.

Previously, when probing a CFI chip which was write-protected at the
hardware level, the probe would fail due to the fact it could not put
the chip into QUERY mode. This would result in no MTD devices being
created.

Add a fallback to probe using the map_rom driver if the user-selected
probe fails.

On device remove, when testing the cmtd field of an of_flash
struct to decide whether it is a concatenated device or not,
we get a false positive on cmtd == NULL, and dereference it
subsequently. This may occur if of_flash_remove() is called
from the cleanup path of of_flash_probe().

Instead, test for NULL first, and only then perform the test
for a concatenated device.
