Greetings.

I'm trying to find some genious data to fill into the unused FLASH space
in my project, so that a stray program counter would get caught and my
system would reset.
I'm thinking one of multiple solutions:

:o) Loop to current position and get caught by the watchdog

:o) Jump to reset vector

:o) An illegal opcode, that will generate an interrupt

:o) A software interrupt instruction

Fill it with NOP instructions.
