Subject: [PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: allow NOR driver to write fewer bytes than requested
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2018 11:13:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180222101358.20035-1-nbd@nbd.name> (raw)
The write size can be constrained by the maximum message/transfer size
of the SPI controller. Only check for ret = 0 to avoid an infinite loop.
