Mika Westerberg 1f37033f05 mtd: spi-nor: intel-spi: Explicitly mark the driver as dangerous in Kconfig
The driver is not meant for normal users at all but instead such users
who really know what they are doing and are able to build their own
kernel to enable it. Mark both driver Kconfig entries as dangerous to
make sure the driver is not accidentally enabled without understanding
possible consequences in doing so.

menuconfig MTD_SPI_NOR
tristate "SPI-NOR device support"
depends on MTD
help
This is the framework for the SPI NOR which can be used by the SPI
device drivers and the SPI-NOR device driver.

config MTD_MT81xx_NOR
tristate "Mediatek MT81xx SPI NOR flash controller"
depends on HAS_IOMEM
help
This enables access to SPI NOR flash, using MT81xx SPI NOR flash
controller. This controller does not support generic SPI BUS, it only
supports SPI NOR Flash.
config MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS
bool "Use small 4096 B erase sectors"
default y
help
Many flash memories support erasing small (4096 B) sectors. Depending
on the usage this feature may provide performance gain in comparison
to erasing whole blocks (32/64 KiB).
Changing a small part of the flash's contents is usually faster with
small sectors. On the other hand erasing should be faster when using
64 KiB block instead of 16 × 4 KiB sectors.
Please note that some tools/drivers/filesystems may not work with
4096 B erase size (e.g. UBIFS requires 15 KiB as a minimum).
config SPI_ASPEED_SMC
tristate "Aspeed flash controllers in SPI mode"
depends on ARCH_ASPEED || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM && OF
help
This enables support for the Firmware Memory controller (FMC)
in the Aspeed AST2500/AST2400 SoCs when attached to SPI NOR chips,
and support for the SPI flash memory controller (SPI) for
the host firmware. The implementation only supports SPI NOR.
config SPI_ATMEL_QUADSPI
tristate "Atmel Quad SPI Controller"
depends on ARCH_AT91 || (ARM && COMPILE_TEST)
depends on OF && HAS_IOMEM
help
This enables support for the Quad SPI controller in master mode.
This driver does not support generic SPI. The implementation only
supports SPI NOR.
config SPI_CADENCE_QUADSPI
tristate "Cadence Quad SPI controller"
depends on OF && (ARM || ARM64 || COMPILE_TEST)
help
Enable support for the Cadence Quad SPI Flash controller.
Cadence QSPI is a specialized controller for connecting an SPI
Flash over 1/2/4-bit wide bus. Enable this option if you have a
device with a Cadence QSPI controller and want to access the
Flash as an MTD device.
config SPI_FSL_QUADSPI
tristate "Freescale Quad SPI controller"
depends on ARCH_MXC || SOC_LS1021A || ARCH_LAYERSCAPE || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM
help
This enables support for the Quad SPI controller in master mode.
This controller does not support generic SPI. It only supports
SPI NOR.
config SPI_HISI_SFC
tristate "Hisilicon SPI-NOR Flash Controller(SFC)"
depends on ARCH_HISI || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM && HAS_DMA
help
This enables support for hisilicon SPI-NOR flash controller.

tristate "NXP SPI Flash Interface (SPIFI)"
depends on OF && (ARCH_LPC18XX || COMPILE_TEST)
depends on HAS_IOMEM
help
Enable support for the NXP LPC SPI Flash Interface controller.
SPIFI is a specialized controller for connecting serial SPI
Flash. Enable this option if you have a device with a SPIFI
controller and want to access the Flash as a mtd device.

select SPI_INTEL_SPI
help
This enables PCI support for the Intel PCH/PCU SPI controller in
master mode. This controller is present in modern Intel hardware
and is used to hold BIOS and other persistent settings. Using
this driver it is possible to upgrade BIOS directly from Linux.
Say N here unless you know what you are doing. Overwriting the
SPI flash may render the system unbootable.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called intel-spi-pci.
config SPI_INTEL_SPI_PLATFORM
tristate "Intel PCH/PCU SPI flash platform driver (DANGEROUS)"

select SPI_INTEL_SPI
help
This enables platform support for the Intel PCH/PCU SPI
controller in master mode. This controller is present in modern
Intel hardware and is used to hold BIOS and other persistent
settings. Using this driver it is possible to upgrade BIOS
directly from Linux.
Say N here unless you know what you are doing. Overwriting the
SPI flash may render the system unbootable.

This enables support for the STM32 Quad SPI controller.
We only connect the NOR to this controller.
