From: Michael Walle <michael@walle.cc>

[ Upstream commit 1e97743fd180981bef5f01402342bb54bf1c6366 ]

MEMLOCK, MEMUNLOCK and OTPLOCK modify protection bits. Thus require
write permission. Depending on the hardware MEMLOCK might even be
write-once, e.g. for SPI-NOR flashes with their WP# tied to GND. OTPLOCK
is always write-once.

MEMSETBADBLOCK modifies the bad block table.

Fixes: f7e6b19bc764 ("mtd: properly check all write ioctls for permissions")
