Nikita Travkin 2b3efb7c51 platform: arm64: Add Acer Aspire 1 embedded controller driver
Acer Aspire 1 is a Snapdragon 7c based laptop. It uses an embedded
controller to perform a set of various functions, such as:

- Battery and charger monitoring;
- Keyboard layout control (i.e. fn_lock settings);
- USB Type-C DP alt mode HPD notifications;
- Laptop lid status.

Unfortunately, while all this functionality is implemented in ACPI, it's
currently not possible to use ACPI to boot Linux on such Qualcomm
devices. To allow Linux to still support the features provided by EC,
this driver reimplments the relevant ACPI parts. This allows us to boot
the laptop with Device Tree and retain all the features.

Say Y here to get to see options for platform-specific device drivers
for arm64 based devices, primarily EC-like device drivers.
This option alone does not add any kernel code.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled.

help
Say Y here to enable the EC driver for the (Snapdragon-based)
Acer Aspire 1 laptop. The EC handles battery and charging
monitoring as well as some misc functions like the lid sensor
and USB Type-C DP HPD events.
This driver provides battery and AC status support for the mentioned
laptop where this information is not properly exposed via the
standard ACPI devices.
