[Help] SST39VF6401B Support

[Flávio Silveira]

Hi Guillaume,

  I tried another router firmware with kernel 2.6.34.5, downloaded 
mtd-2.6.git and pasted chips folder and "linux/mtd" headers, applied your 
last patch and kernel compiled fine.
  I've also enabled debug in kernel and cfi. Should I paste console log in 
message body or should I attach a file with the log?
  I had an error but I don't know if it's related to mtd or the firmware, 
because my router is not officialy supported.

Regards,
  Flavio

No. This snippet comes from the function in charge of identifying the
chip and its capacities.

CFI Query Entry (0x98) is handled by cfi_qry_mode_on() in cfi_util.c.
Humm...
Could you try the attached patch ?
