Here's the error I get trying to apply the patch:

"root@chrx:/home/chrx/Github/flashrom# git apply --check /home/chrx/Downloads/ich_descriptors-amd64.patch 

error: patch failed: ich_descriptors.c:1064

error: ich_descriptors.c: patch does not apply"

Derp? Here's my output from "cc -v":

"root@chrx:/home/chrx/Github/flashrom# cc -v
