Brian Norris f8860802da mtd: spi-nor: make lock/unlock bounds checks more obvious and robust
There are a few different corner cases to the current logic that seem
undesirable:

* mtd_lock() with offs==0 trips a bounds issue on
  ofs - mtd->erasesize < 0

* mtd_unlock() on the middle of a flash that is already unlocked will
  return -EINVAL

* probably other corner cases

So, let's stop doing "smart" checks like "check the block below us",
let's just do the following:

(a) pass only non-negative offsets/lengths to stm_is_locked_sr()
(b) add a similar stm_is_unlocked_sr() function, so we can check if the
    *entire* range is unlocked (and not just whether some part of it is
    unlocked)

Then armed with (b), we can make lock() and unlock() much more
symmetric:

(c) short-circuit the procedure if there is no work to be done, and
(d) check the entire range above/below

This also aligns well with the structure needed for proper TB
(Top/Bottom) support.
