As the reset vector is located at 0xfffffffc, all flash sectors from the
beginning of the U-Boot binary to 0xffffffff must be protected. On the
TQM8548-AG having small sectors at the end of the flash it happened that
the last two sector were not protected and an "erase all" left an
un-bootable system behind:
Bank # 2: CFI conformant FLASH (32 x 16) Size: 32 MB in 270 Sectors
AMD Standard command set, Manufacturer ID: 0xEC, Device ID: 0x257E
Erase timeout: 8192 ms, write timeout: 1 ms
FFFA0000 E RO FFFC0000 RO FFFE0000 RO FFFE4000 RO FFFE8000 RO
FFFEC000 RO FFFF0000 RO FFFF4000 RO FFFF8000 E FFFFC000
The same bug seems to be in drivers/mtd/cfi_flash.c:flash_init() and many
board BSPs as well.
