cfi_cmdset_0002 -- erase suspends broken.

[David Vrabel]

Hi,

The latest cfi_cmdset_0002.c (AMD chips) in CVS has broken erase-suspends.

1. Erase suspend command must be written to the block to be resumed.
2. When erasing DQ2 must a) be read from the erase in progress block b) 
doesn't indicate that an erase has been suspended.  DQ6 is the toggle 
bit to check.

There's a patch attached that fixes these issues.  It's a 
work-in-progress as there's still an issue remaining -- JFFS2 reports 
(for example):

"Newly-erased block contained word 0xff7fffff at offset 0x00ca4540
Newly-erased block contained word 0xffefffff at offset 0x00c90a14
Newly-erased block contained word 0xffffffbf at offset 0x00c82ef4
Newly-erased block contained word 0xfffffbff at offset 0x00df0e20
Newly-erased block contained word 0xfffffffe at offset 0x00de0010"

My 1st thought was that some toggle/status bit were still active but it 
doesn't really make sense.

(Tested with an AMD AM29LV128M part.)
