Currently there is no linux user of write_reg() for write_len > 4byte.

For volatile and non-volatile sector locking [1], we have one out of 
tree implementation and that is specific to flash chip "mt25qu02g". In 
this implementation we need additional sector address (4 byte) to be 
provided for each lock-bit write/erase operation. So total write len in 
write_reg() will be 6 bytes (=1 for opcode, 4 for sect addr, 1 for 
data). We are finalizing the patch for review.

Since cadence qspi controller do support the 8-byte read/write in STIG 
mode, I have tried here to enable that in write_reg(), similar to 
read_reg().
