Clean up SPI state machine and add state codes
The old low-level SPI protocol provided no useful information to the host about whether it was ready to receive or not. It also could get stuck waiting to receive data without setting up receive DMA, if the host did two transactions back-to-back. Add a real state machine to the SPI module. Add a range of byte codes the EC can return outside of a response frame, to indicate its current state. If the AP receives one of these codes, it can abort the transaction since it now knows the EC is unable to determine when it can send a response frame. This change is backwards-compatible with current AP firmware and kernel drivers, since those only look for the framing byte and don't care what other bytes are received in the meantime. BUG=chrome-os-partner:20257 BRANCH=none TEST=crosec test; passes at 70us.

- *
- * where the bytes are defined as follow :
- * - CMD is the command code. (defined by EC_CMD_ constants)
- * - ERR is the error code. (defined by EC_RES_ constants)
- * - Px is the optional payload.
- * it is not sent if the error code is not success.
- * (defined by ec_params_ and ec_response_ structures)
- * - S is the checksum which is the sum of all payload bytes.
- *
- * On LPC, CMD and ERR are sent/received at EC_LPC_ADDR_KERNEL|USER_CMD
- * and the payloads are sent/received at EC_LPC_ADDR_KERNEL|USER_PARAM.
- * On I2C, all bytes are sent serially in the same message.

+ * Byte codes returned by EC over SPI interface.
+ *
+ * These can be used by the AP to debug the EC interface, and to determine
+ * when the EC is not in a state where it will ever get around to responding
+ * to the AP.
+ *
+ * Example of sequence of bytes read from EC for a current good transfer:
+ * 1. - - AP asserts chip select (CS#)
+ * 2. EC_SPI_OLD_READY - AP sends first byte(s) of request
+ * 3. - - EC starts handling CS# interrupt
+ * 4. EC_SPI_RECEIVING - AP sends remaining byte(s) of request
+ * 5. EC_SPI_PROCESSING - EC starts processing request; AP is clocking in
+ * bytes looking for EC_SPI_FRAME_START
+ * 6. - - EC finishes processing and sets up response
+ * 7. EC_SPI_FRAME_START - AP reads frame byte
+ * 8. (response packet) - AP reads response packet
+ * 9. EC_SPI_PAST_END - Any additional bytes read by AP
+ * 10 - - AP deasserts chip select
+ * 11 - - EC processes CS# interrupt and sets up DMA for
+ * next request
+ *
+ * If the AP is waiting for EC_SPI_FRAME_START and sees any value other than
+ * the following byte values:
+ * EC_SPI_OLD_READY
+ * EC_SPI_RX_READY
+ * EC_SPI_RECEIVING
+ * EC_SPI_PROCESSING
+ *
+ * Then the EC found an error in the request, or was not ready for the request
+ * and lost data. The AP should give up waiting for EC_SPI_FRAME_START,
+ * because the EC is unable to tell when the AP is done sending its request.
