watchdog: ziirave_wdt: Don't try to program readonly flash
Andrey Smirnov authored

Bootloader code will ignore any attempts to write data to any flash
area outside of [ZIIRAVE_FIRM_FLASH_MEMORY_START;
ZIIRAVE_FIRM_FLASH_MEMORY_END]. Firmware update code already have an
appropriate check to skip those areas when validating updated
firmware. Firmware programming code, OTOH, does not and will
needlessly send no-op I2C traffic. Add an appropriate check to
__ziirave_firm_write_pkt() so as to save all of that wasted effort.

While at it, normalize all of the address handling code to use full
32-bit address in units of bytes and convert it to an appropriate
value only in places where that is necessary.

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.
