I have the IFD and ME from an x220 that I recently flashed with coreboot for a customer, extracted from their stock firmware, and verified working with the coreboot ROM I subsequently flashed. Can zip and send via email, or whatever you prefer

Well I managed to download the latest BIOS from the lenovo site, which
includes an ME update now the issue is that I can't seem to figure out how to extract it from the .FL1 and .FL2 files.
Those might have a length too long to fit a flash so you need to trim
those down before using ifdtool on those (If they contain and ifd of course) so depending on size of rom dd if=FL1(or 2)file of=vendor_bios.rom bs=1 count=xM
and then ifdtool -x vendor_bios.rom
It didn't work :( after that still "no flash descriptor found in this image"
These are the files and the flash chip on the board is 8M 8523776 '$01CB000.FL1' 8523776 '$01CB000.FL2' 8523776 '$01CB100.FL2' All of them have different hashes, but I do not know what makes them different (maybe it is for various board revisions?)
I would also like to know as to how I can re-flash the EC firmware if
that could potentially cause problems, I of course do not know if it has DMA.
Only existing tool to flash EC is using vendor tool.
EC are only accessed trough port mapped IO (or on newer ones also via memory mapped IO). EC itself does not have DMA afaik.
