I can't give you that level of support, sorry. You need to look into the
source code and debug stuff, or ask for support from your kernel or HW
verndor. Just quick notes: when module insmods without error, it is
success. Otherwise - failure.

Your flash driver reports it supports sub-pages, but this is a lie and
it does not. Writing a sub-page results in an error. Dig the driver.

Dunno, you need to debug your driver.
