Re: [PATCH v4 3/8] mtd: spi-nor: Reorder the preparation vs locking steps

The ->prepare()/->unprepare() hooks are now legacy, we no longer accept
new drivers supporting them. The only remaining controllers using them
acquires a per-chip mutex, which should not interfere with the rest of
the operation done in the core. As a result, we should be safe to
reorganize these helpers to first perform the preparation, before
acquiring the core locks. This is necessary in order to be able to
improve the locking mechanism in the core (coming next). No side effects
are expected.
