attempt trickery, we can simply rename the accessor functions.
Patch created with the help of Coccinelle.

Right now we perform direct pointer manipulation without any abstraction
to read from and write to memory mapped flash chips. That makes it
impossible to drive any flasher which does not mmap the whole chip.
Using helper functions readb() and writeb() allows a driver for external
flash programmers like Paraflasher to replace readb and writeb with
calls to its own chip access routines.
This patch has the additional advantage of removing lots of unnecessary
casts to volatile uint8_t * and now-superfluous parentheses which caused
poor readability.
I used the semantic patcher Coccinelle to create this patch. The
semantic patch follows:
@@
expression a;
typedef uint8_t;
volatile uint8_t *b;
@@
- *(b) = (a);
+ writeb(a, b);
@@
volatile uint8_t *b;
@@
- *(b)
+ readb(b)
@@
type T;
T b;
@@
(
readb
|
writeb
)
(...,
- (T)
- (b)
+ b
)
In contrast to a sed script, the semantic patch performs type checking
before converting anything.

Jens sent the first patch that added A49LF040A to flash.h and flashchips.c
using _jedec and _49lf040 functions.
An issue was found with probe_w29ee011() for the Winbond W29EE011, which
caused the A49LF040A to no longer respond to any commands.
Ward made a patch to disable probing by default for the W29EE011 following
some discussion. Using -c W29EE011 will make flashrom probe for the chip.
Peter did some more datasheet diving and found that the Pm49FL00x functions
suited this chip quite well because of the block locking registers in
A49LF040A, and finally tested PROBE READ ERASE WRITE to work on ALIX.3c3.
Ward confirmed that this works on alix.2c3 too.
