[flashrom] Support

Sun May 8 21:37:59 CEST 2016

As instructed, I'm sending an email with verbose parameter included.
The chip in question is w25q64fvsig.
Also, please advise if something can be done about flashing with the
descriptor locked (other than using an external programmer).

flashrom -p internal:laptop=force_I_want_a_brick -r bios.bin -V
flashrom v0.9.9-r1954 on Linux 4.4.0-kali1-amd64 (x86_64)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at https://flashrom.org

flashrom was built with libpci 3.3.1, GCC 5.3.1 20160307, little endian
Command line (5 args): flashrom -p internal:laptop=force_I_want_a_brick -r bios.bin -V
Calibrating delay loop... OS timer resolution is 1 usecs, 1794M loops per second, 10 myus = 10 us, 100 myus = 103 us, 1000 myus = 1002 us, 10000 myus = 9998 us, 4 myus = 4 us, OK.

========================================================================
WARNING! You seem to be running flashrom on an unsupported laptop.
Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we
recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller
(EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing.
See the manpage and https://flashrom.org/Laptops for details.

If flash is shared with the EC, erase is guaranteed to brick your laptop
and write may brick your laptop.
Read and probe may irritate your EC and cause fan failure, backlight
failure and sudden poweroff.
You have been warned.
========================================================================
Proceeding anyway because user forced us to.
Found chipset "Intel HM76" with PCI ID 8086:1e59.
This chipset is marked as untested. If you are using an up-to-date version
of flashrom *and* were (not) able to successfully update your firmware with it,
then please email a report to flashrom at flashrom.org including a verbose (-V) log.
Thank you!

Not all flash regions are freely accessible by flashrom. This is most likely
due to an active ME. Please see https://flashrom.org/ME for details.
Writes have been disabled for safety reasons. You can enforce write
support with the ich_spi_force programmer option, but you will most likely
harm your hardware! If you force flashrom you will get no support if
something breaks. On a few mainboards it is possible to enable write
access by setting a jumper (see its documentation or the board itself).
