When bootloader has enabled the CMD32EN bit, switch to use 32bits
unlock command to unlock the CS register. Using 32bits command will
help on avoiding 16 bus cycle window violation for two 16 bits
commands.

Now this is intermixing writel() with writel_relaxed(), making the code all but
impossible to understand.

Guenter

Hi Guenter,

Intermixing writel() with writel_relaxed() is unavoidable here. Because there cannot be a memory barrier between writing UNLOCK_SEQ0 and writing UNLOCK_SEQ1. This may be determined by hardware design.

Best Regards,
Alice Guo
