function name doesn't match kdoc, and "Returns" -> "Return:"

No idea why the kernel-doc script doesn't catch this..

you're sure data is 4B aligned? Otherwise get_unaligned()

time_after_jiffies() ?

Is the flash dual-banked? Normally random signals interrupting flashing
is recipe for bricked parts.

A little odd to use "timeout" for periodic check. check_time?

Did I already accus^W ask you if AI helped you write this ? :D
This level of commenting makes me think of code generators :)

+	/* Enable host control */
+	rc = zl3073x_flash_host_ctrl_enable(zldev);
+	if (rc) {
+		ZL_FLASH_ERR_MSG(extack, "cannot enable host control");
+		goto error;
+	}
+
+	zl3073x_devlink_flash_notify(zldev, "Flash mode enabled", "utility",
+				     0, 0);
+
+	return 0;
+
+error:
+	rc = zl3073x_flash_mode_leave(zldev, extack);
+	if (rc)
+		ZL_FLASH_ERR_MSG(extack,
+				 "failed to switch back to normal mode");
+
+	return rc;

Should we be overriding rc here if there was an error on entering
but we cleanly left? If so that _is_ worth commenting on..
