Nope. Read the pdf on ATMELs web site. This problem applies to the
AT91FR40162 which is an ARM7TDMI with an embedded FLASH. Other devices
in the AT49XXXX family are not affected. The bug workaround adds
significant overhead which other devices do not need. So the correct
default is 0 and any HAL targeted to this processor can then enable
the workaround using a CDL requires statement.
