    dfu: dfu_sf: Use the erase sector size for erase operations · f4c92582

    SPI NOR flashes need to erase the entire sector size and we cannot pass
    any arbitrary length for the erase operation.
    
    To illustrate the problem:
    
    Copying data from PC to DFU device
    Download    [=========================] 100%       478208 bytes
    Download done.
    state(7) = dfuMANIFEST, status(0) = No error condition is present
    state(10) = dfuERROR, status(14) = Something went wrong, but the
    device does not know what it was
    Done!
    
    In this case, the binary has 478208 bytes and the M25P32 SPI NOR
    has an erase sector of 64kB.
    
    478208  = 7 entire sectors of 64kiB + 19456 bytes.
    
    Erasing the first seven 64 kB sectors works fine, but when trying
    to erase the remainding 19456 causes problem and the board hangs.
    
    Fix the issue by always erasing with the erase sector size.
