Because if I don't set a window beside 7 to access BOOTCS, then
reconfiguring window 7 (BOOTCs, i.e. FLASH) leaves the system with no
access to BOOT CS thus no access to FLASH thus no way to continue
executing this code, which runs from FLASH.
Thus I chose window 6 (I could have chosen any other, of course) and set
it up for flash so that code can still run while reconfiguring window 7;
then window 6 must, and can safely, be reconfigured for its own target.
(This issue of FLASH access does not happen on designs where boot is
from NAND, of course; but the fix would be harmless even on these)
