The common CFI driver provides this weak default implementation for
flash_cmd_reset():

void __flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
{
	/*
	 * We do not yet know what kind of commandset to use, so we issue
	 * the reset command in both Intel and AMD variants, in the hope
	 * that AMD flash roms ignore the Intel command.
	 */
	flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, AMD_CMD_RESET);
	flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, FLASH_CMD_RESET);
}
void flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
	__attribute__((weak,alias("__flash_cmd_reset")));


Some flash chips seems to have trouble with this reset sequence. In this case
the board specific code can override this weak default version with a board
specific function. For example the digsy_mtc board equipped with the M29W128GH
from Numonyx needs this version to function properly:

void flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
{
	flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, AMD_CMD_RESET);
}
