It would be possible to make a copy of the selected struct programmer
array element before running programmer_init, and have the
programmer-specific programmer_init change the function pointers on the
fly. In your case, we'd change all chip_{read,write}[bwln] and
{un,}map_flash_region pointers inside a board enable function. With
register_shutdown it should be possible to have your shutdown function
run in the intended place.

It would be great if we could get this info from a live system, and not
have to rely on hardcoding it (may depend on BIOS version, installed
hardware etc.). No idea if it is possible to ask ACPI about that value
(at least without including a big ACPI parser in flashrom).

This function can fail. Should it return int instead of void?

Comment style nitpick: Please start the second and following lines of a
multiline comment with * and terminate such comments on a separate line.
I don't see the "Be careful" motto mentioned above in the code below. If
ACPI accesses IMGA1_BASE, we will pretty sure mess up ACPI accesses
there. It's a race condition, and since we are not in control of ACPI,
there is nothing we can do to reduce impact on the ACPI code. Besides
that, there is a time window between the last INW and the final OUTW
where anything can happen.

OUTB, but INW. Is there a reason for the size mismatch?

Minor coding style nitpick: The while statement should be on the same
line as the closing brace.

OK, maybe I've stared at such code too often, but given that mask is
uint8_t and shifting happens inside brackets, isn't the compiler free to
treat the calculation inside brackets as yielding an uint8_t as well,
causing the contents of the bracket to be always zero, or to wrap around
the bitshift at an 8-bit boundary, causing the contents of the bracket
to be unshifted? I would have expected a cast of mask to uint16_t.

To be honest, the code flow in this function seems obvious at first, and
on a second look it becomes an example of clever (maybe even too clever)
coding. A few comments about the behaviour of IMGA1_BASE would be very
appreciated. So far it seems that IMGA1_BASE is used to refer to two
registers, namely an index/value pair. The OUTW is a trick to get an
atomic write of index+value (is that guaranteed to be atomic by the x86
ISA?), a similar explanation probably applies to the INW.

I'm not 100% sure if the ordering above is correct. On some fringe
platform, we might have to get IO permission before scanning the PCI
bus. This is only a minor nitpick, not a hard requirement.

IMHO the matching is too loose here. I'd like to see an additional DMI
match and/or a second PCI device match.

What if the chipset enable returns -1?

A comment about the address used for physmap would be very nice, even if
it is just "The EC maps a window of the flash chip to 4G-0x20000".

You could move currentbank inside switchtobank. Not sure if that is a
good idea, though.

Overall, I like the patch and will probably ack it next time.
