Ok, this info should go in the commit message, together with details about 
which flashes were tested.

I didn't know that the TB bit can be defined in the Configuration register. 
This means that your suggestion with dedicated macros for BP3 and TB is fine.

I looked a bit over your patches, they are in a pretty good shape. I saw 
something that can be improved on patch 2/3, but I didn't manage to finish the 
review. Your patches are the first on my TODO list, but now I'm a bit busy. I 
hope that I'll come with a complete review by the end of the next week. I'm 
going to do tests on few flashes too, to make sure that BP0-2 was not 
affected.

In the meantime, maybe Michael or John can review/test your patches, they 
showed interest in BP0-3 support.

Cheers,
ta
