Dear Timur Tabi,

In message <1284667695-10887-1-git-send-email-timur@freescale.com> you wrote:

I think the description is wrong - don't you switch from DIU to LBC
for flash access?

Incorrect multiline comment format.

Incorrect multiline comment format. Please check and fix globally.

Line too long. Please check and fix globally.

"#ifdef CONFIG_CFI_FLASH_USE_WEAK_ACCESSORS" / "#endif" arount the
#undef ?
