Well, if you haven't already, try a lower speed? 70MHz is pretty high,
too high for your setup. The answer flashrom gets to the RDID command
"e1 908c" is close to the expect ids "c2 2018" if you shift it to the
left.

Even if it seems to work less with a lower speed, please send logs for
that too (e.g. spispeed=30000, 10000, 1000).
