In v5.4-rc1 this is defined as SPI_MEM_OP_DATA_IN, so the Mainline code should
fail. This looks like a bug. I didn't noticed it when doing the patch.

It's not clear to me, does flash_lock fail with my patches on top of v5.4-rc1?
Or it fails when testing v5.4-rc1?

Can you test v5.4-rc1 and see if flash_lock works on you flash or not?

Please specify which flash do you use, and which controller.

Thanks for testing this!
