From 5750e899e03aa3312202be3ff217645c5f69304d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Brownell Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2010 10:53:13 -0800 Subject: NOR: User's Guide updates Remove long-obsolete text about "erase_check" affecting "flash info" output. Move parts of that text to "protect_check", where it's still relevant; and update the "flash info" description to mention the issue. (This is still awkward. It might be best to make "protect_check" mirror "erase_check" by dumping what it finds, so "flash info" doesn't dump any potentially-stale cache info.)
