Some flash chips have a small but annoying bug, documented in
"Numonyx Axcell P33/P30 256-Mbit Specification Update"
It states :
When customer uses [...] block unlock, the block lock status might
be altered inadvertently. Lock status might be set to either 01h
or 03h unexpectedly (00h as expected data), which leads to
program/erase failure on certain blocks.
A workaround is given, (summary : issue a "Read Lock Status" before
the "Lock" or "Unlock" command) which I have applied and tested
with success.

Is this Numonyx-specific issue? Should there be some kind of "if
(numonyx)" statement?
May be Nicolas could validate the patch?

This is clearly a bug specific to some Numonyx flashes.
My chips have Manufacturer ID: 0x89, Device ID: 0x881B, but there are
other chips in the same family. The errata
http://www.numonyx.com/Documents/Specification%20Updates/509003_P3X_65nm_3V_256Mbit_Discrete.pdf does not list the ManufacturerIDs/DeviceIDs of the affected
chips.

CCed Nicolas correctly.
Anyway, if this affects only subset of chips, it make sense to make this
quirk conditional, because this might affect boot speed, e.g., if some
systems unlock all blocks on boot-up.
Nicolas, the original patch was here, would you validate it please?

That is probably quite unlikely to make a difference given that there is
no result delay involved.
However, does the erratum workaround imply that the status actually has
to be read? In other words, can you simply issue CMD 90 without calling
cfi_read_query()?

Here is the relevant excerpt of the errata :
Workaround: If the interval between 60h and its subsequent command
can be guaranteed within 20us, Option I is recommended,
otherwise Option II (involves hardware) should be selected.
Option I: The table below lists the detail command sequences:
Command
Data bus Address bus Remarks
Sequence
1 90h Block Address
Read Lock Status
2 Read Block Address + 02h
(2)(3) (1)
3 60h Block Address
(2)(3) (1) Lock/Unlock/RCR Configuration
4 D0h/01h/03h Block Address
Notes:
(1) Block Address refers to RCR configuration data only when the 60h
command sequence is used to set RCR register combined with 03h
subsequent command.
(2) For the third and fourth command sequences, the Block Address must
be the same.
(3) The interval between 60h command and its subsequent D0h/01h/2Fh/03h
commands should be less than 20us.
