Not only Spansion supports the Persistent Protection Bits (PPB) locking.
Other devices like the Micron JS28F512M29EWx also support this type
of locking/unlocking. Detection of support is done in the same way as
done for the Spansion chips - via the 0x49 CFI word.
This patch enables this PPB protection mechanism for all AMD type
(AMD commandset) chips.

Patch 66863b05 [cfi_flash: add support for Spansion flash PPB sector
protection] introduced the PPB (Persistent Protection Bit) locking for
Spansion chips. But right now the sector protection status (locked vs
unlocked) is set to unlocked for all sectors upon bootup. The real
sector protection status is ignored.
This patch now reads the current sector protection status and uses
it for these AMD/Spansion flash chips.

Add support for SST 4KB sector granularity.
Many recent SST flashes, i.e. SST39VF3201B and similar of this family
are declared CFI-conformant from SST. They support CFI query, but implement
2 different sector sizes in the same memory: a 64KB sector (they call it
"block", std AMD erase cmd=0x30), and a 4KB sector (they call it "sector",
erase cmd=0x50). Also, CFI query on these chips, reading from address 0x2dh
of cfi query struct, detects a number of secotrs for the 4KB granularity
(flinfo shows it).
For all other aspects, they are CFI compliant, so, as Linux do, i think
it's a good idea to handle these chips in the CFI driver, with a fixup
to allow 4KB granularity, as should be expected, instead of 64KB.

The current implementation of cfi_flash uses udelay to reset watchdog.
If several blocks are blank (0xff filled) the watchdog timed out.
The reason is, udelay is never called, if flash device is ready to fast.
e.g.
mw.w $(copy_addr) FFFF 10000;cp.b $(copy_addr) 10880000 20000
-> watchdog timed out
mw.w $(copy_addr) 0000 10000;cp.b $(copy_addr) 10880000 20000
-> watchdog not timed out
This patch adds an extra watchdog reset in front of flash ready check.

This patch adds two cheks. One that insures, that the current sector does

checks if the current access is to the same flash bank as the last access.

commit ec50a8e389
"cfi_flash: handle 'chip size exceeds address window' situation"
added 3rd argument to flash_get_size() but didn't fix all the
function calls from the board specific code. Many boards have
their own flash_get_size() definitions in the board code and
use them there, but some boards (e.g. tqm834x, tqm85xx, pdm360ng)
use flash_get_size() from the cfi_flash.c driver.
The bug shows up if the value of the "max_size" argument (which
is not defined when calling the function with two arguments)
happens to be less than "info->size". In this case on the
affected boards we end up with a bank of reduced size and
in the worst case might even be not able to update U-Boot or
to boot the kernel from flash:
=> fli

Error: end address (0xf007ffff) not in flash!

=> era ${u-boot_addr} +${u-boot_size}
Error: end address (0xf007ffff) not in flash!

On some boards we have flash mapped high in the address space with
considerably small window (say 0xFE000000 and 32MB). When we install
bigger chip (say 64MB) on such a board strange things happen
(flash_write() doesn't work at all, for ex). That's because cfi_flash
driver doesn't care about window size at all.
Of course, cleanest solution would probably be to just extend address
window to be able to map the whole flash but for legacy/compatibility
reasons some people prefer just truncate the flash size and never use
the upper part.
This patch adds an option for cfi_flash driver to handle this situation
properly. To achieve this we add the new function cfi_flash_bank_size()
which can be provided by the board code and weak-aliased to default
implementation that returns value from the CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BANKS_SIZES
array if it's defined or 0 otherwise (the last case is added for
compatibility).
If non-zero flash bank size is provided and detected chip size is bigger
than provided address window size the warning will be displayed and
flash chip will be truncated.

I have "ported" U-boot to a in house made board with Numonyx Axcell P33/P30
256-Mbit 65nm flash chips.
After some time :( searching for bugs in our board or soft, we have
discovered that those chips have a small but annoying bug, documented in
"Numonyx Axcell P33/P30 256-Mbit Specification Update"
It states :
When customer uses [...] block unlock, the block lock status might be
altered inadvertently. Lock status might be set to either 01h or 03h
unexpectedly (00h as expected data), which leads to program/erase failure
on certain blocks.
A working workaround is given, which I have applied and tested with success :
Workaround: If the interval between 60h and its subsequent command
can be guaranteed within 20us, Option I is recommended,
otherwise Option II (involves hardware) should be selected.
Option I: The table below lists the detail command sequences:
Command
Data bus Address bus Remarks
Sequence
1 90h Block Address
Read Lock Status
2 Read Block Address + 02h
(2)(3) (1)
3 60h Block Address
(2)(3) (1) Lock/Unlock/RCR Configuration
4 D0h/01h/03h Block Address
Notes:
(1) Block Address refers to RCR configuration data only when the 60h
command sequence is used to set RCR register combined with 03h
subsequent command.
(2) For the third and fourth command sequences, the Block Address must
be the same.
(3) The interval between 60h command and its subsequent D0h/01h/2Fh/03h
commands should be less than 20us.
And here is a log comparison of a simple (destructive) flash test without
and with the workaround.

While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a
limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this
phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM)
must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function. This
function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r"
suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of
the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent
vs. getgrent_r, etc.).
Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r"
generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation.

This patch adds reset_timer() before the flash status check
waiting loop.
Since the timer is basically running asynchronous to the cfi
code, it is possible to call get_timer(0), then only a few
_SYSCLK_ cycles later an interrupt is generated. This causes
timeout even though much less time has elapsed. So the timer
period registers should be reset before get_timer(0) is
called.
There is similar usage in nand_base.c.

For JEDEC flash, we should issue word programming command relative to
base address rather than sector base address. Original source makes
SST Flash fails to program sectors which are not on the 0x10000 boundaries.
e.g.
SST39LF040 uses addr1=0x5555 and addr2=0x2AAA, however, each sector
is 0x1000 bytes.
Thus, if we issue command to "sector base (0x41000) + offset(0x5555)",
it sends to 0x46555 and the chip fails to recognize that address.
This patch is tested with SST39LF040.

Several boards used different ways to specify the size of the
protected area when enabling flash write protection for the sectors
holding the environment variables: some used CONFIG_ENV_SIZE and
CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND, some used CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, and some even
a mix of both for the "normal" and the "redundant" areas.
Normally, this makes no difference at all. However, things are
different when you have to deal with boards that can come with
different types of flash chips, which may have different sector
sizes.
Here we may have to chose CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE such that it fits the
biggest sector size, which may include several sectors on boards using
the smaller sector flash types. In such a case, using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
or CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND to enable the protection may lead to the
case that only the first of these sectors get protected, while the
following ones aren't.
This is no real problem, but it can be confusing for the user -
especially on boards that use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE to protect the
"normal" areas, while using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND for the
"redundant" area.
To avoid such inconsistencies, I changed all sucn boards that I found
to consistently use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE for protection. This should
not cause any functional changes to the code.

On the pcm030 the environment is located in the onboard EEPROM. But we want
to handle flash sector protection in a safe manner. So we must read the
unlock environment variable from EEPROM instead from flash.
This patch is required as long the evironment is saved into the EEPROM.
Stefan: Additional change as suggested by Wolfgang, use bigger char array
(instead of 4).
