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.

Used to init all the mtd_info fields. Move the mtd_info init
the last thing in the spi_nor_scan(), so that we avoid superfluous
initialization of the mtd_info fields in case of errors.
While here use common naming scheme for functions that are setting
mtd_info fields:
s/spi_nor_register_locking_ops/spi_nor_set_mtd_locking_ops
s/spi_nor_otp_init/spi_nor_set_mtd_otp_ops
The functions names are self explanatory, get rid of the comment
for the OTP function.

It makes the core file a bit smaller and provides better separation
between the Software Write Protection features and the core logic.
All the next generic software write protection features (e.g. Individual
Block Protection) will reside in swp.c.
