misc-utils: flash_erase: FIX integer overflow in flash_erase.c
Report of the static analyzer:
The value of an arithmetic expression 'eb_cnt * mtd.eb_size' is a subject to overflow because its operands are not cast to a larger data type before performing arithmetic
Corrections explained:
Added explicit casting of eb_cnt to long long in the condition
if (eb_start == 0 && mtd.size == eb_cnt * mtd.eb_size)
to ensure the multiplication is performed in a 64-bit context,
preventing potential overflow for large values of eb_cnt and mtd.eb_size.
This ensures correct handling of devices with large block counts or block sizes.
