New Revision: 2744

Modified:
   trunk/util/flashrom/sst28sf040.c
Log:
Fix bug in probe_28sf040() causing flash corruption on SST49LF160C verify.

The first byte of the flash chip was read at the start of the function
and later written back to address 0 if the flash chip was not identified
as SST28SF040, which means most of the time. This write caused corruption
of flash contents when verifying a SST49LF160C part.
