I'm worried about this global variable. If you have multiple instances of such NOR flash, then you theoretically may have a situation when one of them is being probed, while another is being used for real. And this single global switch will break the one which is used for real. IOW, the right solution would be to have per-chip flag, not a global flag. -- Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy (ÐÑÑÑÐ ÐÐÑÑÑÐÐÐ)
