2015-08-05cros_ec: Support the LDO access method used by springSimon Glass
Add a driver to support the special LDO access used by spring. This is a custom method in the cros_ec protocol - it does not use an I2C pass-through. There are two implementation choices: 1. Write a special LDO driver which can talk across the EC. Duplicate all the logic from TPS65090 for retrying when the LDO fails to come up. 2. Write a special I2C bus driver which pretends to be a TPS65090 and transfers reads and writes using the LDO message. Either is distasteful. The latter method is chosen since it results in less code duplication and a fairly simple (30-line) implementation of the core logic. The crosec 'ldo' subcommand could be removed (since i2c md/mw will work instead) but is retained as a convenience. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
