dfu_upload error -84 when trying to backup images

[Vikas Saurabh]

I dont think this is related to the architecture. I had faced similar
issue on core duo (i had put a comment on the wiki for the same). Btw,
i didnt have to flash the back up image so i dont know if it actually
worked out correctly.
