* Read a factory.rom dump (ich9m/gm45 machines) and
* modify the flash descriptor to remove all regions except descriptor,
* Gbe and BIOS. Set BIOS region to full size of the ROM image (after
* the flash descriptor and gbe). Basically, deblob the descriptor.
*
* This will will generate a concatenated descriptor+gbe dump suitable
* for use in libreboot. Currently tested: ThinkPad X200 (coreboot/libreboot)
