It's worth noting that `region->write_prot` is used to indicate a different type of protection to normal chip-based WP.

`get_region()` allows opaque programmers to indicate that part of the flash is protected by the programmer/chipset. It is currently only used by the ICH (intel chipset) driver because the intel chipset blocks access to some flash regions.
