The problem you're addressing (if any)
Some platforms do not flash well with flashrom programmer linux_spi. Somtimes even flashrom dediprog programmer has problems with properly flashing the device. However, the dedicated Linxu software for Dediprog programmers successfully updates the flash contents compared to flashrom.

Describe the solution you'd like
Integrate the https://github.com/DediProgSW/SF100Linux software into RTE distro for cases where dpcmd can provide reliable flashing method, alternative to flashrom.

Where is the value to a user, and who might that user be?
All 3mdeb employees that need to work on hardware that is very tricky to setup remotely and only a specific programmers work with it.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Are there any alternatives? The flashing always fails with some single byte/bit errors no matter what, but dpcmd works well...

Additional context
None

The recipe should be upstreamed, and in meta-rte we should simply use it.

I described problems I have with creating a recipe in #69 (comment)

EDIT: For now i created it at our repo. When it'll be working and we tackle #67 then I'll try to upstream it.

The dediprog utility was added to the image with the v0.8.0 release as well as accepted upstream. I've filed an issue for deleting the recipe from our layer and using the one in the meta-openembedded. Closing this one as it's done
