    \brief  BIOS replacement flashrom support.

    This file is involved with accessing an flashrom chip soldered in place to
    replace the BIOS ROM. Specifically, this driver is for accessing a STMicro
    M29W800B, but should also work with other chips like the M29W160B or
    equivalent AMD chips.
