Timeout calculation in flash_status_check():
The function calculates seconds instead of miliseconds.=20
And on some boards the range of ulong is exceeded in the
calculation (because CFG_HZ is very big on some boards).

This is a bug with such boards. CFG_HZ should always be set to  1000.
Looking  back  I  have  to  admit that it was a major design error to
create this variable at all.
