In a while loop in cfi_flash.c the array "start" is accessed at the index
"sector" before the index variable "sector" is bounds-checked, which
might lead to accesses beyond the bounds of the array.
Swap the order of the checks in the "&&" expression, so that the
short-circuit evaluation prevents out-of-bounds array accesses.
