Subject: [PATCH] mfd: cros_ec: Fail early if we cannot identify the EC
Git-commit: 0dbbf25561b29ffab5ba6277429760abdf49ceff
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: bsc#1051510

If we cannot communicate with the EC chip to detect the protocol version
and its features, it's very likely useless to continue. Else we will
commit all kind of uninformed mistakes (using the wrong protocol, the
wrong buffer size, mixing the EC with other chips).
