Please find attached my revised patch. This includes the following
change over my original patch:
1) Olaf's suggestion of using _end removes the calculation making things
smaller, neater
and less complex.
2) The comment about where to start has been improved.
3) In extended testing I found a platform with ancient firmware
(different than the platform
that started all of this) that has a similar problem with claim. The
fix was to enforce the
PROG_START value as the absolute minimum.
