Add an implementation of the _is_locked operation for concatenated mtd
devices. As with concat_lock/concat_unlock this can simply use the
common helper and pass mtd_is_locked as the operation.

Hmm, here you start abusing your own new API. :(

Did you verify that the unlock/lock-functions deal correctly with all
semantics from mtd_is_locked?
i.e. mtd_is_locked() with len = 0 returns 1 for spi-nor.

Abusing because xxlock is a poor choice of name? I initially had a third 
copy of the logic from lock/unlock which is what lead me to do the 
cleanup first. mtd_lock(), mtd_unlock() and mtd_is_locked() all work the 
same way namely given an offset and a length either lock, unlock or 
return the status of the len/erasesz blocks at ofs.

I believe so. I've only got access to a parallel NOR flash system that 
uses concatenation and that seems sane  (is mtdconcat able to work with 
spi memories?). The concat_is_locked() should just reflect what the 
underlying mtd device driver returns.

Well, for unlock/lock it is just a loop which applies an operation to
a given range on all submtds.
But as soon an operation returns non-zero, the loop stops and returns
that error.
This makes sense for unlock/lock.

Now you abuse this as "apply a random mtd operation to a given range".
So, giving it a proper name is the first step. Step two is figuring
for what kind
of mtd operations it makes sense and is correct.

mtdconcat *should* work with any mtd. But I never used it much, I see
it more as legacy
code.

What happens if one submtd is locked and another not?
Does concat_is_locked() return something sane then?
I'd expect it to return true if at least one submtd is locked and 0
of no submtd is locked.

If the loop and return code handling in __concat_xxlock() can take care of that,
awesome. Then all you need is giving it a better name. :-)

BTW: Meant overlapping requests. If it targets always only one submtd,
it is easy.

Ah now I understand you concern. I guess the question is what is the 
right thing for MEMISLOCKED to return when consecutive blocks differ in 
lock status.

As implemented right now the loop will stop at the first locked block. 
So if the range starts in a unlocked block and spans into a locked one 
the return value will be 1.

Is that correct? Well do_ppb_xxlock and  do_getlockstatus_oneblock seem 
to only care about the first block (they both ignore len)? So they'd 
return 0 in the case of unlocked,locked.

stm_is_locked_sr does about the len and will return 0 if len falls 
outside the locked region or if ofs starts before the locked region.

So here's a quick breakdown

                  ppb_is_locked intelext_is_locked stm_is_locked concat
unlocked,unlocked            0                  0             0      0
locked,locked                1                  1             1      1
locked,unlocked              1                  1             0      1
unlocked,locked              0                  0             0      1

I'll try and make concat_is_locked consistent with the two cfi 
implementations.

Thanks for your feedback on this. I think the v2 series should look a 
lot better as a result.
