[Skiboot] [PATCH] external/pflash: Perform the correct cleanup

[Cyril Bur]

If the -F flag is used then pflash uses a regular file as the flash.

On cleanup pflash fails to tell arch_flash_close() if it had passed a
filename to arch_flash_init() as such arch_flash_close() assumes that
it needs to close the actual flash structure and not simply a file
descriptor leading to a NULL dereference.

Note: This fix is correct but I'm not particularly fond of it. A
better solution is to refactor and stop relying on atexit() to perform
cleanup after the use of exit(). This cleanup would also benifit
debugging, this work and tests to avoid this situation in future is in
my work queue.
