When there are more BP settings than needed for defining the protected areas of the flash memory, most flashes will define the remaining settings as "protect all", i.e. the equivalent of having all the BP bits set to one. But there are flashes where the in-between BP values are undefined (not mentioned), and only the "all bits set" is protecting the entire memory. One such example is w25q80, where BP[2:0]=0b101 and 0b110 are not defined. Set all the BP bits to one when lock_len == mtd->size, to treat this special case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
