From: Liu Jian <liujian56@huawei.com> commit d9b8a67b3b95a5c5aae6422b8113adc1c2485f2b upstream. In function do_write_buffer(), in the for loop, there is a case chip_ready() returns 1 while chip_good() returns 0, so it never break the loop. To fix this, chip_good() is enough and it should timeout if it stay bad for a while.
