Rebooting a BMC can take 70 seconds. Skiboot cannot possibly spin for
70 seconds waiting for a BMC to come back. This also makes the current
default of 30 seconds a bit pointless, is it far too short to be a
worse case wait time but too long to avoid hitting hardlockup detectors
and wrecking havoc inside host linux.
Just change it to three seconds so that host linux will survive and
that, reads and writes will fail but at least the host stays up.
Also refactored the waiting loop just a bit so that it's easier to read.

Bugs present in the BMC daemon mean that skiboot gets presented with
mbox windows of size zero. These windows cannot be valid and skiboot
already detects these conditions.
Currently skiboot warns quite strongly about the occurrence of these
problems. The problem for skiboot is that it doesn't take any action.
Initially I wanting to avoid putting policy like this into skiboot but
since these bugs aren't going away and skiboot barfing is leading to
lockups and ultimately the host going down something needs to be done.
I propose that when we detect the problem we fail the mbox call and punt
the problem back up to Linux. I don't like it but at least it will cause
errors to cascade and won't bring the host down. I'm not sure how Linux
is supposed to detect this or what it can even do but this is better
than a crash.
Diagnosing a failure to boot if skiboot its self fails to read flash may
be marginally more difficult with this patch. This is because skiboot
will now only print one warning about the zero sized window rather than
continuously spitting it out.

Some BMC mbox implementations seem to sometimes mysteriously fail when trying
to negotiate v3 when they only support v2. To work around this, we
can fall back to requesting lower mbox protocol versions until we find
one that works.
In theory, this should already "just work", but we have a counter example,
which this patch fixes.

This makes the mbox unit test run 300x quicker and seems to
shave about 6 seconds from boot time on Witherspoon.

A first basic set of tests for mbox-flash. These tests do their testing
by stubbing out or otherwise replacing functions not in
libflash/mbox-flash.c. The stubbed out version of the function can then
be used to emulate a BMC mbox daemon talking to back to the code in
mbox-flash and it can ensure that there is some adherence to the
protocol and that from a blocklevel api point of view the world appears
sane.
This makes these tests simple to run and they have been integrated into
`make check`. The down side is that these tests rely on duplicated
feature incomplete BMC daemon behaviour. Therefore these tests are a
strong indicator of broken behaviour but a very unreliable indicator of
correctness.
Full integration tests with a 'real' BMC daemon are probably beyond the
scope of this repository.

hw/lpc-mbox no longer requires that the memory associated with messages
exist for the lifetime of the message. Once it has been sent to the BMC,
that is bmc_mbox_enqueue() returns, lpc-mbox does not need the message
to continue to exist. On the reciving side, lpc-mbox will ensure that a
message exists for the receving callback function.
Remove all code to deal with allocating messages.

Currently when mbox-flash decides that a message times out the driver
has no way of knowing to drop the message and will continue waiting for
a response indefinitely preventing more messages from ever being sent.
This is a problem if the BMC crashes or has some other issue where it
won't ever respond to our outstanding message.
This patch provides a method for mbox-flash to tell the driver how long
it should wait before it no longer needs to care about the response.

The MBOX protocol states that if an open window command fails then all
open windows are closed. Currently, if an open window command fails
mbox-flash will erroneously assume that the previously open window is
still open.
The solution to this is to mark all windows as closed before issuing an
open window command and then on success we'll mark the new window as
open.

Fixes: CID 142226 (#1 of 1):
overflow_before_widen: Potentially overflowing expression
`1 << mbox_flash->shift` with type int (32 bits, signed) is evaluated using
32-bit arithmetic, and then used in a context that expects an expression
of type uint64_t (64 bits, unsigned).

Version two of the mbox-flash protocol defines a new command:
MARK_WRITE_ERASED.
This command provides a simple way to mark a region of flash as all 0xff
without the need to go and write all 0xff. This is an optimisation as
there is no need for an erase before a write, it is the responsibility of
the BMC to deal with the flash correctly, however in v1 it was ambiguous
what a client should do if the flash should be erased but not actually
written to. This allows of a optimal path to resolve this problem.

Updated version 2 of the protocol can be found at:
https://github.com/openbmc/mboxbridge/blob/master/Documentation/mbox_protocol.md
This commit changes mbox-flash such that it will preferentially talk
version 2 to any capable daemon but still remain capable of talking to
v1 daemons.
Version two changes some of the command definitions for increased
consistency and usability.
Version two includes more attention bits - these are now dealt with at a
simple level.

- Warn if flushing with closed write window.
- Call msg_free_memory() in mbox_flash_init() before a successful
return. No leak is present as the current allocation theme is from
static memory. However as this is likely to change in the future,
best to ensure that msg_free_memory() is called after every
allocation.
- Fix bug where len argument may be incorrect in mark dirty command.
