Move the first command byte write into advance_transaction() so that all
EC register accesses that can affect the command processing state machine
can happen in this asynchronous state machine advancement function.
The advance_transaction() function then can be a complete implementation
of an asyncrhonous transaction for a single command so that:
1. The first command byte can be written in the interrupt context;
2. The command completion waiter can also be used to wait the first command
byte's timeout;
3. In BURST mode, the follow-up command bytes can be written in the
interrupt context directly, so that it doesn't need to return to the
task context. Returning to the task context reduces the throughput of
the BURST mode and in the worst cases where the system workload is very
high, this leads to the hardware driven automatic BURST mode exit.
In order not to increase memory consumption, convert 'done' into 'flags'
to contain multiple indications:
1. ACPI_EC_COMMAND_COMPLETE: converting from original 'done' condition,
indicating the completion of the command transaction.
2. ACPI_EC_COMMAND_POLL: indicating the availability of writing the first
command byte. A new command can utilize this flag to compete for the
right of accessing the underlying hardware. There is a follow-up bug
fix that has utilized this new flag.
The 2 flags are important because it also reflects a key concept of IO
programs' design used in the system softwares. Normally an IO program
running in the kernel should first be implemented in the asynchronous way.
And the 2 flags are the most common way to implement its synchronous
operations on top of the asynchronous operations:
1. POLL: This flag can be used to block until the asynchronous operations
can happen.
2. COMPLETE: This flag can be used to block until the asynchronous
operations have completed.
By constructing code cleanly in this way, many difficult problems can be
solved smoothly.
