From 01d6aba25193552f832fc0309b6bfb63a48f7a1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2009 14:02:07 +0000 Subject: Flashrom does not honor argument ordering for operations Not only does this violate the principle of least surprise, it also caused one bug where -Ewv was specified and the flash ended up being empty. Support only one operation at a time. As a side benefit, this allows us to clean up main() quite a bit. Corresponding to flashrom svn r585.
