[flashrom] sbxxx: Add spispeed parameter.

[Reiner Luett]

Hello,

latest flashrom version failed with /dev/mem permission denied.
I will try it later an send the error to you. I really like to use
the patches.

I only have spare chips and the mainboard - no external programmer. :-(

Regards,
Reiner
