On many boards, communication between the kernel and the Embedded Controller happens over an LPC bus. In these cases, the kernel config CONFIG_CROS_EC_LPC is enabled. Some of these LPC boards contain a Microchip Embedded Controller (MEC) that is different from the regular EC. On these devices, the same LPC bus is used, but the protocol is a little different. In these cases, the CONFIG_CROS_EC_LPC_MEC kernel config is enabled. Currently, the kernel decides at compile-time whether or not to use the MEC variant, and, when that kernel option is selected it breaks the other boards. We would like a kind of runtime detection to avoid this. This patch adds that detection mechanism by probing the protocol at runtime, first we assume that a MEC variant is connected, and if the protocol fails it fallbacks to the regular EC. This adds a bit of overload because we try to read twice on those LPC boards that doesn't contain a MEC variant, but is a better solution than having to select the EC variant at compile-time. While here also fix the alignment in Kconfig file for this config option replacing the spaces by tabs.
