Hi Anton.
I think the expression 'i*reginfo->erasesize' could overflow too. 
Besides, 'unsigned long start' could be a 32-bit number on a 32-bit 
platform.
So, we should make 'start' be the 'unsigned long long' type, and then 
convert 'i' into 'unsigned long long' in expression 'i * 
reginfo->erasesize'. For example, start = reginfo->offset + (unsigned 
long long)i * reginfo->erasesize.
