[PATCH v3] mtd:nor:timeout:fix do_write_buffer() timeout error

[bean huo]

The size of the buffer program has been increased from 256 to 512 , 2ms maximum timeout for do_write_buffer can not adapt to all the different vendor's norflash.There maximum timeout information in the CFI area,so the best way is to choose the result calculated according to timeout field of struct cfi_ident that probed from norflash's CFI aera.This is also a standard defined by CFI.
 
Without this change, if the size of buffer program is 512 or bigger than 256, due to timeout is the shorter than that the chip required,do_write_buffer sometimes fails.
 
Tested with Micron JS28F512M29EWx and Micron MT28EW512ABA flash devices.

changes
     v1->v2:Deleted unused parameters in this patch (word_write_time_max and erase_time_max).
Using usecs_to_jiffies instead of msecs_to_jiffies for convert timeout value into jiffies.
      v2->v3:Removed unnecessary messages form comments and deleted trailing whitespace.
