[net-next v31 1/2] mailbox: pcc: functions for reading and writing PCC extended data

From: Adam Young

Date: Tue Feb 24 2026 - 18:12:13 EST


Adds functions that aid in compliance with the PCC protocol by
checking the command complete flag status.

Adds a function that exposes the size of the shared buffer without
activating the channel.

Adds a function that allows a client to query the number of bytes
avaialbel to read in order to preallocate buffers for reading.
