This commit updates the SPI subsystem, particularly affecting "SPI MEM"
drivers and core parts, by replacing the -ENOTSUPP error code with
-EOPNOTSUPP.

The key motivations for this change are as follows:
1. The spi-nor driver currently uses EOPNOTSUPP, whereas calls to spi-mem
might return ENOTSUPP. This update aims to unify the error reporting
within the SPI subsystem for clarity and consistency.

2. The use of ENOTSUPP has been flagged by checkpatch as inappropriate,
mainly being reserved for NFS-related errors. To align with kernel coding
standards and recommendations, this change is being made.

3. By using EOPNOTSUPP, we provide more specific context to the error,
indicating that a particular operation is not supported. This helps
differentiate from the more generic ENOTSUPP error, allowing drivers to
better handle and respond to different error scenarios.

Risks and Considerations:
While this change is primarily intended as a code cleanup and error code
unification, there is a minor risk of breaking user-space applications
that rely on specific return codes for unsupported operations. However,
this risk is considered low, as such use-cases are unlikely to be common
or critical. Nevertheless, developers and users should be aware of this
change, especially if they have scripts or tools that specifically handle
SPI error codes.

This commit does not introduce any functional changes to the SPI subsystem
or the affected drivers.

v5. distinguish -EOPNOTSUPP from -ENOTSUPP
v6. a. spi_nor_set_4byte_addr_mode() should check -EOPNOTSUPP, all
       callbacks of set_4byte_addr_mode() will eventually return
       -EOPNOTSUPP if the checking failed.
    b. Update comment to describe the reason for the patch and the
       affected parts.
    c. Update the kernel-doc of exec_op() in struct spi_controller_mem_ops
v7. added comment for the return code changes may affect userspace, and
    the risk after this change

This patch breaks SPI probing with spi-bcm-qspi.c on v6.8 and beyond:

[    2.196300] brcmstb_qspi f0440920.qspi: using bspi-mspi mode
[    2.210295] spi-nor: probe of spi1.0 failed with error -95

I am still going down drivers/mtd/spi-nor/core.c to figure out where 
this broke.
