I looked at these devices a while ago an they don't look too hard to
support.  Though last time I looked at the code they weren't
supported.  They are simple like most flash devices.  I haven't double
checked but they may support the standard intel flash command set from
the software side, in which all that is needed is to write a mapping driver.
