dt-bindings: nvmem: new optional property wp-gpios
Several memories have a write-protect pin, that when pulled high, it blocks the write operation. On some boards, this pin is connected to a GPIO and pulled high by default, which forces the user to manually change its state before writing. Instead of modifying all the memory drivers to check this pin, make the NVMEM subsystem check if the write-protect GPIO being passed through the nvmem_config or defined in the device tree and pull it low whenever writing to the memory. Add a new optional property to the device tree binding document, which allows to specify the GPIO line to which the write-protect pin is connected.
