I've found a nicer way: make an init_gpio in the superio.c that puts the port value in a global var if the PIOROM_STREAM is enabled.
Uhm, ok, but this does not build for me (against r3127)? Looks like the actual definition of init_gpio is missing from your patch?
You are right! I must have deleted too much from the diff... I should not do so many changes on one source tree.
I really want this to go into the tree. We'll get there eventually :)
I've prepared a patch for r3129 WITH the definition of the static function..
This patch allows direct out-of-SPI-flash boot of a Linux kernel. It circumvents the 512KB limitation in the IT8716f superio of memory mapping an SPI flash device by using a PIO method for reading the data. Limitation: no nrv2b support.
