hi,
When we press ctrl-alt-del,kernel_restart_prepare will revoke
cfi_intelext_reboot which
will set flash to read array mode,but later when device_shutdown is
invoked which may
put current work queue to sleep and other process may be sheduled to
running and programming flash in not FL_READY mode again.So we cann't
boot up if this flash is used
for bootloader.This patch is against current Linus git tree.
Sorry,my english is a little rusty.:-)
Appreciated for any comment.
