Er... flashrom currently only allows using the layout codepaths in
write mode; there is a check for this in cli_classic.c, which I
disabled.

The log I sent previously described two regions, a "descriptor" region
at 0-ffff (64K), and the BIOS itself at 200000-7fffff (6M).

When I use --verify, unlike --read, it fails.  The final line of
output (the only difference) is:

Verifying flash... FAILED at 0x00000000! Expected=0xff, Found=0x00,
failed byte count from 0x00000000-0x007fffff: 0x7d0bdf
