This allows the minimum time that default_delay() will choose to sleep for instead of polling to be configured at build-time. The default remains unchanged at 100 milliseconds for now. The test's correctness has been checked by testing with minimum sleep time left at its default and set to a non-default value smaller than 100 microseconds (both pass without sleeping, verified with strace) and with the minimum sleep time set to 0 (causing the test to be skipped). The configured value from the macro needs to be stored in a const to avoid -Werror=type-limits errors when configured to be zero.

flashrom README
===============
flashrom is a utility for detecting, reading, writing, verifying and erasing
flash chips. It is often used to flash BIOS/EFI/coreboot/firmware images
in-system using a supported mainboard, but it also supports flashing of network
cards (NICs), SATA controller cards, and other external devices which can
program flash chips.
It supports a wide range of flash chips (most commonly found in SOIC8, DIP8,
SOIC16, WSON8, PLCC32, DIP32, TSOP32, and TSOP40 packages), which use various
protocols such as LPC, FWH, parallel flash, or SPI.
Do not use flashrom on laptops (yet)! The embedded controller (EC) present in
many laptops might interact badly with any attempts to communicate with the
flash chip and may brick your laptop.
Please make a backup of your flash chip before writing to it.
Please see the flashrom(8) manpage :doc:`classic_cli_manpage`.
