i'm sure i could verify this by RTFS but i've had a long week and
i'm feeling lazy so ... is it true that i can protect an MTD partition
from accidental overwriting by defining it in the map file with the
MAP_WRITEABLE flag?
and having done that, the only way to change that partition would be
to use flash_unlock, write it, then flash_lock it again? as in,
defining it with MAP_WRITEABLE is *exactly* equivalent to having
locked it initially. or does that MAP_WRITEABLE mask flag mean
something different? thanks.
