Previous patch intends to restore the flash's QE bit when removed/shutdown,
but may have some problems and break the flash:
- for those originally in Quad mode, this patch will clear the QE bit
when unloaded the flash, which is incorrect.
- even with above problem solved, it may still break the flash as some
flash's QE bit is non-volatile and lots of set/reset will wear out
the bit.
- the restore method cannot be proved to be valid as if a hard
reset or accident crash happened, the spi_nor_restore() won't be
performed the the QE bit will not be restored as we expected to.
So let's revert it to fix this. The discussion can be found at [1].
