PATCH RESEND v2 1/1 mtd: spi-nor: Fix address width on flash chips > 16MB

If a flash chip has more than 16MB capacity but its BFPT reports BFPT_DWORD1_ADDRESS_BYTES_3_OR_4, the spi-nor framework defaults to 3.

The check in spi_nor_set_addr_width() doesn't catch it because addr_width did get set. This fixes that check.

Fixes f9acd7fa80be ("mtd: spi-nor: sfdp: default to addr_width of 3 for configurable widths")

I don't think its a good idea to drop nor->addr_width == 3 check as nor->info->addr_width is permitted to have a value > 4 (although there is no such flash today)...

The check below for SPI_NOR_MAX_ADDR_WIDTH will return an error when nor->addr_width > 4, but I see your point.
