From: Kane-Chen-AS <kane_chen@aspeedtech.com>

This patch introduces a 'drive' property to the Aspeed OTP device,
allowing it to be backed by a block device. Users can now preload
OTP data via QEMU CLI using a block backend.

Example usage:
  ./qemu-system-arm \
    -blockdev driver=file,filename=otpmem.img,node-name=otp \
    -global aspeed-otp.drive=otp \
    ...

If the drive is provided, its content will be loaded as the initial OTP
state. Otherwise, an internal memory buffer will be used.
