Thanks for the data.
Yay for crappy BIOS. The chipset I/O ranges touched by the chipset
enable are completely unreserved and other devices may live there.

Joshua, if you send the chipset patch and flash chip patch in separate
mails with a subject that allows easier identification, I will ack them
and commit. Side note: If you have any download URLs for the flash chip
datasheets you used, please mention them in the changelog.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
