Thinking aloud if we need the enter phase at all, because:
1) The first cmd6 is always part of the sequence, and
2) is it even safe to send it as a single ioctl?

I guess the answer to 2) is yes, and having a start phase actually make sense:
it makes clearer of what the ffu process comprised of:
Start (enter ffu mode), repeat...., finish up.

I would even add a comment in the code (and in the commit log) for all modes other than 1,
emphasizing that from this point onward, the device is blocked in ffu mode.

Thanks,
Avri
