Hmm, I have the ITE IT8585 and IT8987 chips here.

The it85spi driver is commented out in code, apparently because it
relies on firmware-specific functions. AFAIK, there isn't much to read
the internal flash on ECs, other than the ENE KB9012's via EDI.

For those chips? I'm interested in them: How did you obtain them?

I don't think much has been done for the internal flash on these ICs on
flashrom. For instance, I didn't know the IT8987 had an internal flash.
