This driver provides an atomic communications channel between the OCC on
the POWER9 processor and a service processor (a BMC). The driver is
dependent on the FSI SBEFIFO driver to get hardware access to the OCC
SRAM.
The format of the communication is a command followed by a response.
Since the command and response must be performed atomically, the driver
will perform this operations asynchronously. In this way, a write
operation starts the command, and a read will gather the response data
once it is complete.
