Robert Marko 3ef988caf3 generic: 4.19: Add 4B_OPCODES flag to w25q256
This patch backports the upstream patch that adds the 4B_OPCODES flag to w25q256 under 4.19 kernel.
This is needed for ipq40xx and ramips.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: allow NOR driver to write fewer bytes than
requested
The write size can be constrained by the maximum message/transfer size
of the SPI controller. Only check for ret = 0 to avoid an infinite loop.
