Sending this in again since I think it was missed.  From the CVS I pulled
yesterday (3/18), Micron chips still appear to break.  I took the change
from jedec_probe.c and added an extra comment.  The current CVS breaks
Micron Q-Flash part # MT28F128J3 , and the below patch seems to fix it
because Micron requires an 0xFF for read mode.

Is it possible to add this to CVS?

Thanks,

-Brian
