I just tested linux-4.5-rc4 it appears the above fix missed the release for rc4!
So the behaviour of firmware reset being called after the access of
the last partition timesout.

Again tested patch with the new release - 4.5-rc4 and found everything
to work as expected again.

So Hopefully for rc5 - Please!

please find attached a copy of the dmesg output for 4.5-rc4
