hw/block/pflash_cfi01: Document use of non-CFI compliant command '0x00'
The command 0x00 is used by this model since its origin (commit 05ee37ebf630). In this commit the command is described with a amusing '/* ??? */' comment, probably meaning 'FIXME'. switch (cmd) { case 0x00: /* ??? */ ... This comment survived 12 years because the 0x00 value is indeed not specified by the CFI open standard (as of this commit). The 'cmd' field is transfered during migration. To keep the migration feature working with older QEMU version, we have to take a lot of care with migrated field. We figured out it is too late to remove a non-specified value from this model (this would make migration review very complex). It is however not too late to improve the documentation. Add few comments to remember this is a special value related to QEMU, and we won't find information about it on the CFI spec.
