[PATCH 0/3] mfd: cros_ec: Add user-space dev inferface support

From: Javier Martinez Canillas

Hello,

The mainline ChromeOS Embedded Controller (EC) driver is still missing some
features that are present in the downstream ChromiumOS tree. These are:

- User-space device interface
- Low Pin Count (LPC) interface
- Access to vboot context stored on a block device
- Access to vboot context stored on EC's nvram
- Power Delivery Device
- Support for multiple EC in a system

This series adds support for the first of these missing features: the cros
ec dev driver that provides the interface used by user-space to access the
EC. The support patches were taken from the downstream ChromiumOS 3.14
kernel tree with fixes and cleanups squashed to have a minimal patch-set.

The series is composed of the following patches:

Bill Richardson (3):
mfd: cros_ec: Add Chrome OS EC userspace device interface
mfd: cros_ec: Create sysfs attributes for the ChromeOS EC.
mfd: cros_ec: Expose Chrome OS Lightbar to users

Patch #1 adds the cros_ec_dev driver that provides the dev interface to
user-space. Patch #2 adds sysfs entries that can be used to get information
and to control the EC and Patch #3 adds sysfs entries to control Chromebook
Pixel's four-element LED lightbar.

The patches were tested on a Exynos5420 Peach Pit Chromebook by using the
sysfs entries and the ectool.

Best regards,
Javier
