mtd: spi-nor: hisi-sfc: Try to provide some clarity on which SFC we are
The driver is for the HiSilicon FMC (Flash Memory Controller), which
supports SPI NOR in addition other memory technologies, like SPI NAND.

Indeed, the naming in the driver is a little inappropriate, especially
considering that there is already another HiSilicon SPI NOR flash
controller (which I believe the FMC is derived from).

Since we now want to provide software support for this other HiSilicon
controller, update code comments to at least try to make it clear that
this driver is for the FMC.

tristate "SPI-NOR device support"

depends on MTD && SPI_MASTER
select SPI_MEM
help
This is the framework for the SPI NOR which can be used by the SPI
device drivers and the SPI-NOR device driver.

bool "Use small 4096 B erase sectors"
default y
help
Many flash memories support erasing small (4096 B) sectors. Depending
on the usage this feature may provide performance gain in comparison
to erasing whole blocks (32/64 KiB).
Changing a small part of the flash's contents is usually faster with
small sectors. On the other hand erasing should be faster when using
64 KiB block instead of 16 × 4 KiB sectors.
Please note that some tools/drivers/filesystems may not work with
4096 B erase size (e.g. UBIFS requires 15 KiB as a minimum).
config SPI_ASPEED_SMC
tristate "Aspeed flash controllers in SPI mode"
depends on ARCH_ASPEED || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM && OF
help
This enables support for the Firmware Memory controller (FMC)
in the Aspeed AST2500/AST2400 SoCs when attached to SPI NOR chips,
and support for the SPI flash memory controller (SPI) for
the host firmware. The implementation only supports SPI NOR.
config SPI_CADENCE_QUADSPI
tristate "Cadence Quad SPI controller"
depends on OF && (ARM || ARM64 || COMPILE_TEST)
help
Enable support for the Cadence Quad SPI Flash controller.
Cadence QSPI is a specialized controller for connecting an SPI
Flash over 1/2/4-bit wide bus. Enable this option if you have a
device with a Cadence QSPI controller and want to access the
Flash as an MTD device.
config SPI_HISI_SFC
tristate "Hisilicon FMC SPI-NOR Flash Controller(SFC)"

depends on HAS_IOMEM
help
This enables support for HiSilicon FMC SPI-NOR flash controller.
config SPI_MTK_QUADSPI
tristate "MediaTek Quad SPI controller"
depends on HAS_IOMEM
help
This enables support for the Quad SPI controller in master mode.
This controller does not support generic SPI. It only supports
SPI NOR.

help
Enable support for the NXP LPC SPI Flash Interface controller.
SPIFI is a specialized controller for connecting serial SPI
Flash. Enable this option if you have a device with a SPIFI
controller and want to access the Flash as a mtd device.

select SPI_INTEL_SPI
help
This enables PCI support for the Intel PCH/PCU SPI controller in
master mode. This controller is present in modern Intel hardware
and is used to hold BIOS and other persistent settings. Using
this driver it is possible to upgrade BIOS directly from Linux.
Say N here unless you know what you are doing. Overwriting the
SPI flash may render the system unbootable.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called intel-spi-pci.
