Felix Fietkau	c08293893a	kernel: add support for limiting 4K erase sector support based on flash chip size ... Some targets need 4K sectors for small flash chips (e.g. some routerboards, where the entire chip is just one "erase block"), whereas on other devices 4K sectors lead to horrible flash erase/write performance. Set the default limit in the generic kernel configuration to 4 MiB to ensure that all new platforms don't use 4K sectors for bigger flash chips. On all existing targets use 16 MiB for now to avoid regressions. They will be changed individually in follow-up commits. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>	7 years ago
