Hello and thanks for your report. As discussed on IRC the chipset
itself is not the problem, but its configuration as specified by the
descriptor region in the flash chip an also the SMM protection which
can only be overcome by following the firmware's proprietary interface
(which is of course not documented publicly).

I have added the board to our list of (un)supported boards (with an
appropriate note) and will commit that later together with other small
changes.
