> Changes in v8:

> Changes in v6:
> - Re-added WILCO_EC_FLAG_EXTENDED_DATA and went back to always
>   reading either EC_MAILBOX_DATA_SIZE or EC_MAILBOX_DATA_SIZE_EXTENDED
>   bytes, since it turns out the EC always expects you to calculate the
>   checksum over all of them.
> - Split WILCO_EC_MSG_TELEMETRY into WILCO_EC_MSG_TELEMETRY_SHORT and
>   WILCO_EC_MSG_TELEMETRY_LONG, since there will be two different
>   commands.
> - A couple comment and err message polishes
> - s/4.19/5.1/ for kernel version in documentation, since that is
>   the version this patch should land in.
> - Instead of requiring at least 3 bytes for msg type and command,
>   now just require two for msg type. We can skip the command.
> - Fixed error checking in probe() so that errors are hidden, without
>   causing more errors or unextpected behavior.
> - Some comment polishing.
> - In the core, actually unregister the debugfs child platform_device
> - In the core, actually unregister the RTC child platform_device.
>
> Changes in v5:
> - move checking of NO_RESPONSE flag before timeout check,
>   so now timeout doesn't always happen when EC isn't supposed
>   to respond.
> - rm WILCO_EC_FLAG_EXTENDED_DATA, that is already obvious from
>   wilco_ec_message.response_size
> - core now always continues regardless of debugfs failure
> - mv documentation to file header
> - Check for OOM
> - rm unneeded check if debug_info is allocqated
> - rm bogus comment
> - add space around "+"
> - rm WILCO_EC_FLAG_EXTENDED_DATA, that is already obvious from
>   wilco_ec_message.response_size
>
> Changes in v4:
> - add #define DRV_NAME
> - remove redundant Kconfig nesting
> - changed my email to @chromium.org
> - Add better explanation of what core.c does
> - Change debugfs driver to be a separate module
> - Change me email to @chromium.org from @google.com
> - Change CONFIG_WILCO_EC_SYSFS_RAW to
>   CONFIG_WILCO_EC_DEBUGFS
> - Change me email to @chromium.org from @google.com
> - Move "Add RTC driver" before "Add sysfs attributes" so that
>   it could get accepted earlier, since it is less contentious
>
> Changes in v3:
> - Change <= to >= in mec_in_range()
> - Add " - EC_HOST_CMD_REGION0" to offset arg for io_bytes_mec()
> - remove unused ret in probe()
> - Add newline spacer in probe()
> - rm unnecessary res in get_resource()
> - s/8bit/8-bit
> - rm first sleep when sending command to EC
> - Move the attribute to the debugfs system
> - Move the implementation to debugfs.c
> - Improve the raw hex parsing
> - Encapsulate global variables in one object
> - Add safety check when passing less than 3 bytes
> - Move documentation to debugfs-wilco-ec
> - rm #define for driver name
> - Don't compute weekday when reading from RTC.
>   Still set weekday when writing, as RTC needs this
>   to control advanced power scheduling
> - rm check for invalid month data
> - Set range_min and range_max on rtc_device
>
> Changes in v2:
> - Fixed kernel-doc comments
> - Fixed include of linux/mfd/cros_ec_lpc_mec.h
> - cros_ec_lpc_mec_in_range() returns -EINVAL on error
> - Added parens around macro variables
> - Remove COMPILE_TEST from Kconfig because inb()/outb()
> won't work on anything but X86
> - Add myself as module author
> - Tweak mailbox()
> - Add sysfs documentation
> - rm duplicate EC_MAILBOX_DATA_SIZE defs
> - Make docstrings follow kernel style
> - Fix tags in commit msg
> - Move Kconfig to subdirectory
> - Reading raw now includes ASCII translation
> - rm license boiler plate
> - rm "wilco_ec_rtc -" prefix in docstring
> - Make rtc driver its own module within the drivers/rtc/ directory
> - Register a rtc device from core.c that is picked up by this driver
