[nsp] flash memory for AS5300's

[Jared Mauch]

	I've done that a few times myself because the bootflash:
is a *LOT* faster to copy files to/from.

	"back in the day" when the rsp images would fit in bootflash:
as well as the 7200 images in the 4m bootflash they had it was
a great thing to do for reducing boot time.
