x86/olpc: Add debugfs interface for EC commands
Add a debugfs interface for sending commands to the OLPC
Embedded Controller (EC) and reading the responses. The EC
provides functionality for machine identification, battery and
AC control, wakeup control, etc.
Having a debugfs interface available is useful for EC
development and debugging.
Based on code by Paul Fox (who also approves of the end result).

+Description:
+
+A generic interface for executing OLPC Embedded Controller commands and
+reading their responses.
+
+To execute a command, write data with the format: CC:N A A A A
+CC is the (hex) command, N is the count of expected reply bytes, and A A A A
+are optional (hex) arguments.
+
+To read the response (if any), read from the generic node after executing
+a command. Hex reply bytes will be returned, *whether or not* they came from
+the immediately previous command.
