The patches LGTM, and if the other maintainers are fine, I'd like to queue all
these through the chrome-platform tree.

I noticed, thought, that KernelCI reported a regression on Kevin that I'll try
to debug at the beginning of next week.

[    3.821203] cros-ec-spi spi2.0: Wrong size 1/3: 0 != 4
[    3.827320] cros-ec-keyb ff200000.spi:ec@0:keyboard-controller: cannot
register non-matrix inputs: -71
[    3.838506] cros-ec-keyb: probe of ff200000.spi:ec@0:keyboard-controller
failed with error -71
[    3.853492] cros-ec-spi spi2.0: Chrome EC device registered

Thanks,
