I was looking into this driver probe walking sub-nodes.

It looks like all controller drivers are doing / have to do similar work -

(1) Parse common dt bindings documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/jedec,spi-nor.yaml
(2) Run spi_nor_scan() with tweaked/reduced capabilities.
(3) mtd_register_device().

It would be good to absorb this workflow in mtd/spi-nor core and add 'reserved' as common
dt property to avoid (2) and (3) from probe.
