The current timeout for STM32 flash block erase and flash mass erase is
10 (ms), which is too tight, and fails around 50% of the time for me.
The data sheet for STM32F107VC specifies a maximum erase time of 40 ms
(for both operations).
I'd also consider it a bug that the code does not detect a timeout, but
just assumes that the operation has completed. The attached patch does
not address this bug.
The attached patch increases the timeouts from 10 to 100 ms. Please apply.
