[LinuxBIOS] RFC Winflashrom Architecture -- Current device driver (testbed)

[Darmawan Salihun]

Hi,
   Is it acceptable to do direct port I/O through driver for I/O port
accesses (other than
the PCI bus accesses). I still couldn't figure out the solution for this
kind of problem.
It will require fair amount of changes to the current flashrom code base
for that :-(.
