Implementation Notes:
---------------------
Due to the RAM/flash bus arbitration problem the suggested workaround
had to be implemented. It works okay. On the downside is that you
can't really check whether 'erase' is complete by polling flash as it
is usually done. Instead, the flash driver simply waits for a given
time and assumes that erase then has passed. This behaviour is
identical to what the VxWorks driver does; also, the same timeout (6

seconds) was chosen. Note that this timeout applies for each erase
operation, i. e. per erased sector.
