/* 
 * Flash Application Message Interface
 *
 * This is a very simple messaging interface that the Host and Target use
 * in order to allow the Host to read, write, and erase flash memory on
 * the Target.
 *
 * The Host writes requests to mailbox0, and reads responses
 * from mailbox0.   Flash requests all begin with a command
 * (see below for specific commands), and are followed by
 * command-specific data.
 *
 * All flash messages -- both commands and responses -- begin
 * with FLASH_PADDING_SZ bytes of padding.  This may enable
 * Host software to leverage portions of an existing network
 * stack during flash messaging.
 *
 * Flow control:
 * The Host can only issue a command once the Target issues a
 * "Flash Command Credit", using AR6k Counter #4.  As soon as the
 * Target has completed a command, it issues another Flash Command
 * Credit (so the Host can issue the next Flash command).
