i have been playing around with -Wsign-conversion for this patch... and
at least on my gcc version it is way over-sensitive, for example
ichspi.c: In function ‘ich7_run_opcode’:
ichspi.c:742: warning: negative integer implicitly converted to unsigned type

that is:
 	temp32 = REGREAD32(ICH7_REG_SPIA) & ~0x00FFFFFF;

together with -Werror -Wsign-conversion will probably explode somewhere
even if we try hard to get it right on dev platforms.
