Randall Spangler a35bfd69e9 Add arbitrary-length read support to i2cxfer
Previously, it could only read 8 or 16 bit values

BUG=chrome-os-partner:26191
BRANCH=rambi
TEST=manual

  Counted string for battery manufacturer name:
  > i2cxfer rlen 0 0x16 0x20 16
  Data: 0653696d706c6fe1e1e1e1e1e1e1e1e1

  Read lifetime data block 1 (also tests 16-bit writes)
  > i2cxfer w16 0 0x16 0 0x60
  > i2cxfer rlen 0 0x16 0x23 32
  Data: 20d2d2d2d2948700000d0a0a060a000000020000000000000000000000000000

  Read lifetime data block 2
  > i2cxfer w16 0 0x16 0 0x61
  > i2cxfer rlen 0 0x16 0x23 27
  Data: 1b0000000000010200010c02000201000100000300002008082009

  8 and 16 bit reads still work
  > i2cxfer r 0 0x16 0x23
  0x1b [27]
  > i2cxfer r16 0 0x16 0x23
  0x001b [27]

In the most general case, the flash layout looks something like this:

  +---------------------+
  | Reserved for EC use |
  +---------------------+

  +---------------------+
  |     Vblock B        |
  +---------------------+
  |  RW firmware B      |
  +---------------------+

  +---------------------+
  |     Vblock A        |
  +---------------------+
  |  RW firmware A      |
  +---------------------+

  +---------------------+
  |       FMAP          |
  +---------------------+
  |   Public root key   |
  +---------------------+
  |  Read-only firmware |
  +---------------------+


BIOS firmware (and kernel) put the vblock info at the start of each image
where it's easy to find. The Blizzard EC expects the firmware vector table
to come first, so we have to put the vblock at the end. This means we have
to know where to look for it, but that's built into the FMAP and the RO
firmware anyway, so that's not an issue.

The RO firmware doesn't need a vblock of course, but it does need some
reserved space for vboot-related things.

Using SHA256/RSA4096, the vblock is 2468 bytes (0x9a4), while the public
root key is 1064 bytes (0x428) and the current FMAP is 644 bytes (0x284). If
we reserve 4K at the top of each FW image, that should give us plenty of
room for vboot-related stuff.
