Hm, doesn't look right to adjust the function pointer just before
calling it. Can't we move that logic earlier (when doing the
default/manufacturer specific init)? Also, as I said in one of my
previous emails, I'd prefer to have this hook moved to
spi_nor_locking_ops and just have a flag to reflect when block
protection can be disabled.
