Just that it seems like the code should be something like:

#ifdef CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
	if (addr_dataflash(img_addr)) {
		...
	} else
#endif
		return img_addr;

unless I'm missing something the code should return 'img_addr' if we  
don't have to deal with dataflash (either by it not being config'd in  
or 'img_addr' isn't in a dataflash.
