Some flash chips do not provide the flash size in the second byte of the
device ID, which can either cause the wrong number of bytes to be
read/written or cause idcode() to be called infinitely. The user must
check their chip's datasheet to know whether its device ID includes its
size or they need to specify the size with the -s option.
Read tested with an Atmel AT26DF321 (manufacturer ID 0x1F, device ID
0x4700).
