[PATCH v2] drivers:mtd:spi-nor:checkup FSR error bits

From: Bean Huo (beanhuo)
Date: Mon Dec 04 2017 - 07:36:07 EST


For Micron spi nor device, when erase/program operation
fails, especially the failure results from intending to
modify protected space, spi-nor upper layers still get
the return which shows the operation succeeds. This is
because current spi_nor_fsr_ready() only uses FSR bit.7
(flag status register) to check device whether ready.
This patch fixs this issue by checking relevant error
bits in FSR.
The FSR is a powerful tool to investigate the staus of
device, checking information regarding what is actually
doing the memory and detecting possible error conditions.
