The current code checks for the special signature that signifies
a revision 4 SPROM. A rev. 8 SPROM with a 440-byte length has been
found, but any special code for it is unknown. The the check should
be relaxed. With this patch, if the CRC is incorrect for a 256-byte
SPROM, the code will immediately check for a 440-byte SPROM. If there
is still a CRC error, the size is set to 440 bytes, which allows dumping
of most of any 512-byte SPROM if/when one is encountered.
The code has also been modified to test for cases where the CRC check
results in a false positive, but the revision number is wrong.
