[176] System: Flash erase through CTRL-AP fails due to watchdog time-out

This anomaly applies to IC Rev. Engineering B, build codes QIAA-BA0, QIAA-BB0, CKAA-AA0.

It was inherited from the previous IC revision Engineering A nRF52840.

Symptoms

Full flash erase through CTRL-AP is not successful.

Conditions
