Is it really necessary to write the index register twice here? Not that
it matters much in codesize.

Ah, my old spaces for tabs setting, removed now. I had assumed that this
was handled earlier, when stepan committed my code when i was too busy
to fix things then. Sorry for that.
It will probably still exist in other places of flashrom too, nothing
you should worry about though.
