As explained in the comment introduced above the fix, the Arasan controller driver starts an operation when the prog register is being written with a "type" specific to the action to perform. The prog type used until now to perform a CHANGE READ COLUMN with an SDR interface was the PAGE READ type (CMD + ADDR + CMD + DATA). Unfortunately, for an unknown reason (let's call this a silicon bug) any CHANGE READ COLUMN performed this way in NV-DDR mode will fail: the data ready flag will never be triggered, nor will be the transfer complete flag. Forcefully, this leads to a timeout situation which is not easy to handle. Fortunately, it was spotted that sending the same commands through a different prog register "type", CHANGE READ COLUMN ENHANCED, would work all the time (even though this particular command is not supported by the core and is only available in a limited set of devices - we only care about the controller configuration and not the actual command which is sent to the device). So let's use this type instead when a CHANGE READ COLUMN is requested.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
