[flashrom] Support for flash mx1635d success

[Carl-Daniel Hailfinger]

Hi Stephan,

thank you for testing those chips.
flashrom 0.9.3 has dynamic ICH SPI reprogramming and should be able to
use all erase methods on your machine.

Current flashrom svn HEAD has some partial write functionality, and the
latest partial write patch is available at
http://patchwork.coreboot.org/patch/2156/

Yes, the invalid opcode message should not appear anymore in flashrom 0.9.3.
