I was trying to zero out a USB stick and at some point it seems to have locked 
itself up.  By that I mean that for all intends and purposes I cannot write to 
it in any conceivable way.

I tried to delete /dev/sdb1 with c/fdisk, the dd zeros into /dev/sdb1, 
/dev/sdb and also the first 512B to delete the partition table, but nothing 
seems to work.

/dev/sdb1 is still there no matter how I try to delete/format/overwrite it.

Is there a way of resetting whatever needs resetting in the USB flash chip to 
make it work again?
