Allow to poll on the cros_ec device to receive the MKBP events.
The /dev/cros_[ec|fp|..] file operations now implements the poll
operation. The userspace can now receive specific MKBP events by doing
the following:
- Open the /dev/cros_XX file.
- Call the CROS_EC_DEV_IOCEVENTMASK ioctl with the bitmap of the MKBP
events it wishes to receive as argument.
- Poll on the file descriptor.
- When it gets POLLIN, do a read on the file descriptor, the first
queued event will be returned (using the struct
ec_response_get_next_event format: one byte of event type, then
the payload).
The read() operation returns at most one event even if there are several
queued, and it might be truncated if the buffer is smaller than the
event (but the caller should know the maximum size of the events it is
reading).
read() used to return the EC version string, it still does it when no
event mask or an empty event is set for backward compatibility (despite
nobody really using this feature).
This will be used, for example, by the userspace daemon to receive and
treat the EC_MKBP_EVENT_FINGERPRINT sent by the FP MCU.

There is a bit of mess between cros-ec mfd includes and platform
includes. For example, we have a linux/mfd/cros_ec.h include that
exports the interface implemented in platform/chrome/cros_ec_proto.c. Or
we have a linux/mfd/cros_ec_commands.h file that is non related to the
multifunction device (in the sense that is not exporting any function of
the mfd device). This causes crossed includes between mfd and
platform/chrome subsystems and makes the code difficult to read, apart
from creating 'curious' situations where a platform/chrome driver includes
a linux/mfd/cros_ec.h file just to get the exported functions that are
implemented in another platform/chrome driver.
In order to have a better separation on what the cros-ec multifunction
driver does and what the cros-ec core provides move and rework the
affected includes doing:
- Move cros_ec_commands.h to include/linux/platform_data/cros_ec_commands.h
- Get rid of the parts that are implemented in the platform/chrome/cros_ec_proto.c
driver from include/linux/mfd/cros_ec.h to a new file
include/linux/platform_data/cros_ec_proto.h
- Update all the drivers with the new includes, so
- Drivers that only need to know about the protocol include
- linux/platform_data/cros_ec_proto.h
- linux/platform_data/cros_ec_commands.h
- Drivers that need to know about the cros-ec mfd device also include
- linux/mfd/cros_ec.h

That's a driver to talk with the ChromeOS Embedded Controller via a
miscellaneous character device, it creates an entry in /dev for every
instance and implements basic file operations for communicating with the
Embedded Controller with an userspace application. The API is moved to
the uapi folder, which is supposed to contain the user space API of the
kernel.
Note that this will replace current character device interface
implemented in the cros-ec-dev driver in the MFD subsystem. The idea is
to move all the functionality that extends the bounds of what MFD was
designed to platform/chrome subsystem.
