When operating the write-protection flash,spi_flash_std_write() and spi_flash_std_erase() would return wrong result.The flash is protected, but write or erase the flash would show "OK".
Check the flash write protection state before operating the flash and give a prompt to show it has been locked if the write-protection has enbale

Changes for V2: - Return 0 not ENOPROTOOPT to refelect the flash feature - Output prompt information

I would use a debug message, it's a flash specific thing. Also, I would update a bit the message, something like "SF: Flash has protected areas in the requested length. Writes will be ignored on those."
return 0;
Michael has suggested to drop this line. I agree with him, check the conversation on the previous email thread.
Cheers, ta

the background is we like to use sf command to operate the flash under uboot shell,
"sf erase" command still would show the prompt "erase ok" even though write-enable has enabled.
So at the beginning I'd like to return an error ,so the sf operation would show "erase failed" when operating the write-enabled devices.
I'm agree with onlyoutput information to prompt the user the operation unsuccessful.
But It should explicitly giveclear hints,so I suggest at here using printf not debug.
