82802ab: touch only blocks that need updating
Flash pages, which where excluded from updating using the exclude or the
layout option, as well as areas, whose flash contents already contain
the desired data, will be skipped. These ensures absolute data security
of critical areas (BIOS boot block), e.g. against a sudden power off or
a CPU hangup during flashing. As a nice side effect, it speeds up the
flash process, if the BIOS to be flashed is very similar to the version
in flash.
Corresponding to flashrom svn r217 and coreboot v2 svn r3260.
