According to section 8.2.7 Write Extended Address Register (C5h) of the Winbond W25Q256FV data sheet (256M-BIT SPI flash)
The Extended Address Register is only effective when the device is in the 3-Byte Address Mode. When the device operates in the 4-Byte Address Mode (ADS=1), any command with address input of A31-A24 will replace the Extended Address Register values. It is recommended to check and update the Extended Address Register if necessary when the device is switched from 4-Byte to 3-Byte Address Mode. This patch adds code to implement that recommendation. Without this, my GNUBEE-PC1 will not successfully reboot, as the Extended Address Register is left with a value of '1'. When the SOC attempts to read (in 3-byte address mode) the boot loader, it reads from the wrong location.
