Sorry. Thanks for retrying :)

The ProtRegData are per-chip, but you've only left space for one pointer. 
What happens when people have arrays of multiple chips side-by-side and/or
consecutively mapped?

Also, isn't it possible to _write_ to the user areas of the chips?

Is this present in all versions of the Intel command sets, or do you need 
to check the version number?
