Cypress S29GLxxxP flash is needed to read data 3 times to check DQ6 toggles.
Actually the read data is sometimes changed by the 3rd reading.
Also this is caused on other flash device also.
The flash write failure is possible to be caused by the error.
To resolve the issue change the read number of times to 3 from 2.
