The flash image has a size of 16777216 [0x1000000] bytes. Peculiar firmware descriptor, assuming Apollo Lake compatibility.
The firmware descriptor looks like a Skylake/Sunrise Point descriptor. However, the read frequency isn't set to 17MHz (the only valid value). Please report this message, the output of `ich_descriptors_tool` for your descriptor and the output of `lspci -nn` to flashrom@flashrom.org
