Not sure where I copied this from. I'll remove the underscores in the next 
version.

You probably mean a board with dataflash *and* NOR FLASH that can't be 
accessed memory-mapped. We currently don't have such a board. The upcoming 
VCT board port is the first with such an (cumbersome) local bus interface. 
And I hope it will be the last.

OK.

Right. Thanks for spotting.

That would be a bigger change since this macro changes "buf" and "crc" without 
having those parameters passed to it. I didn't want to make this bigger 
change if not really necessary.
