Add support for the SPI serial flash host controller found on many Intel CPUs including Baytrail and Braswell. The SPI serial flash controller is used to access BIOS and other platform specific information. By default the driver exposes a single read-only MTD device but with a module parameter "writeable=1" the MTD device can be made read-write which makes it possible to upgrade BIOS directly from Linux.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
