I object the use of the qualifications you're putting in this
sentence. By saying "some legacy...." you're implying that there's a
set that does and a set that doesn't require this. Which then leads
the reader of this commit message to #1 look for which ones this
applies to vs not, and #2 want to remove/exclude the feature when
they're using a "current" device. The wiggle-word wording is confusing
and dishonest.
I've followed this discussion now intently and it seems like Micron is
either unable or unwilling to determine which specific devices this
does or doesn't apply to. If you are unable to identify and restrict
this functionality to a specific subset of devices, then the fact is
it's "all." Let's just say that and eliminate the confusion. And
please also update your datasheets to indicate that this is the
correct algorithm for working with these devices. Better would be to
issue an errata on the chips and notify your customers. I feel for
those customers who aren't using Linux and don't know the reliability
problem they've been tracking down for the last couple of years is
already known but they don't have any way of knowing about it.
In your commit message, rewording to "On planar 2D Micron NAND devices
when a block erase command..." is sufficient.
