spi: airoha-snfi: en7523: workaround flash damaging if UART_TXD was short to GND

Airoha EN7523 specific bug
--------------------------
We found that some serial console may pull TX line to GROUND during board
boot time. Airoha uses TX line as one of its bootstrap pins. On the EN7523
SoC this may lead to booting in RESERVED boot mode.

It was found that some flashes operates incorrectly in RESERVED mode.
Micron and Skyhigh flashes are definitely affected by the issue,
Winbond flashes are not affected.

Details:
--------
DMA reading of odd pages on affected flashes operates incorrectly. Page
reading offset (start of the page) on hardware level is replaced by 0x10.
Thus results in incorrect data reading. As result OS loading becomes
impossible.

Usage of UBI make things even worse. On attaching, UBI will detects
corruptions (because of wrong reading of odd pages) and will try to
recover. For recovering UBI will erase and write 'damaged' blocks with
a valid information. This will destroy all UBI data.

Non-DMA reading is OK.

This patch detects booting in reserved mode, turn off DMA and print big
fat warning.

It's worth noting that the boot configuration is preserved across reboots.
Therefore, to boot normally, you should do the following:
- disconnect the serial console from the board,
- power cycle the board.
