sanni 63b239d27e V28: Rewrite GBA repros with 32MB Intel 4000L0YBQ0 flashrom
There is still a bug left when it comes to resetting the flashrom to read mode since I can't find the datasheet to look up the partition sizes. So it might be that the verifying process fails even though the flashing was successful. In this case remove the GBA repro for a few seconds then just dump the rom and compare if the write really failed.
