[PATCH v3 2/5] mtd: rawnand: brcmnand: Fix potential false time out warning
Posted by William Zhang 2 years, 7 months ago
If system is busy during the command status polling function, the driver
may not get the chance to poll the status register till the end of time
out and return the premature status.  Do a final check after time out
happens to ensure reading the correct status.

Fixes: 9d2ee0a60b8b ("mtd: nand: brcmnand: Check flash #WP pin status before nand erase/program")

Do a final... ...the CPU was busy and the driver did not get enough
time to perform the polling to avoid false alarms.
