This should just use the 'max()' macro, from <linux/kernel.h>.

I have just fixed up your patch myself, to use max() and to improve some
of the language. Let me know if the below works for you.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: fix do_write_buffer() timeout error

For some NOR flashes, the size of the buffer program has been increased
from 256 bytes to 512 bytes, and so 2ms maximum timeout can may not be
sufficient for all different vendor's NOR flash. There is maximum
timeout information in the CFI area, so we instead of picking a fixed
value, we can calculate this according to the standard CFI parameters
parsed at probe time. If we haven't probed this information, or it is
smaller than 2000us, then specify a minimum value 2000us.

Tested with Micron JS28F512M29EWx and Micron MT28EW512ABA flash devices.

Yes. Pushed to l2-mtd.git.

Please be more diligent next time to follow CodingStyle and email
submission practices next time. Even if your company email gives
trouble, I'm sure you can find some way to send patches properly. For
instance, a quick search shows me that your outlook.com email supports
sending email via SMTP:

  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/outlook/send-receive-from-app

That means you can, for instance, use git-send-email to send patches.

Brian

This works well with Spansion NOR device (S29GL512S10) present on
J6-EVM, using http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/372866/.

Though it's already accepted in l2-mtd.git, but just for record.
