When we press ctrl-alt-del,kernel_restart_prepare will invoke
cfi_intelext_reboot which will set flash to read array mode, but later
when device_shutdown is invoked which may put current work queue to
sleep and other process may be scheduled to running and programming
flash in not FL_READY mode again. So we can't boot up if this flash is
used for bootloader.
