[PATCH v3 0/2] mtd: spi-nor: Fix SST AAI write mode

This patch series addresses two distinct problems affecting SST flash
Auto Address Increment write functionality:
1. When writes begin at odd addresses, a single byte is programmed first
using byte program command, which clears the Write Enable Latch. The
driver fails to re-enable writes before the AAI sequence.
2. When the SPI controller lacks direct mapping support, the fallback
path uses a probe-time operation template with standard page program
opcodes instead of AAI opcodes.
Changes in v3:
- Patch 1/2: Use local boolean 'needs_write_enable' for clarity as
suggested by Michael Walle
- Patch 1/2: Improved comment explaining the fix
- Patch 1/2: Added Fixes tag
Changes in v2:
- Split fixes into separate patches
- Added detailed commit messages
