His patch was for a mainboard and not for flashrom.
It is safe for the earlier SB's since they use the register the same way. If you are trying to move from a 256K or 512K flash device to a 1MB flash, flashrom will not work without this patch if the factory BIOS has not opened the decode range to 1MB.
