Hi,
while tryong to convert the TQM8260 board to using the CFI flash
driver (instead of a perfectly working legacy flash driver) I ran
into a strange problem: after an erase operation, the CFI driver
returns without any error indication, but the flash is not ready yet.
It takes some more milliseconds before the flash gets ready - by then
it's indeed erased, but this behaviour makes things like "saveenv" or
any "erase;cp" command sequences fail with a "Flash not Erased" error
message.
Symptoms look like this:

The board uses 4 x 29LV652UE-90 flash chips for a single 32 MiB flash
bank, 64 bit wide; the old legacy driver showed:
Bank # 1: FUJITSU 29LV640D (64 M, uniform sector)
Size: 32 MB in 128 Sectors
The CFI driver says:
Bank # 1: CFI conformant FLASH (64 x 16) Size: 32 MB in 128 Sectors
AMD Standard command set, Manufacturer ID: 0x04, Device ID: 0x22D7
Erase timeout: 16384 ms, write timeout: 1 ms
CFI debugging shows nothing unusual (at least as far as I can tell):

Why the heck does flash_is_busy() return 0 when the flashobviously is
still busy?
Thanks in advance.
