Furthermore, the read status has to be to the same "partition" and you have
to end the resume with a read status too
"If the suspended partition was placed in Read Array mode or a Program Loop"
Mike, I think some of this supports your findings.
I guess we need to save the block address which are being erased
to fulfil "same partition"
