Subject: [PATCH v5 0/9] Updates to MHI channel handling

MHI specification shows a state machine with support for STOP channel command
and the validity of certain state transitions. MHI host currently does not
provide any mechanism to stop a channel and restart it without resetting it.
There are also times when the device moves on to a different execution
environment while client drivers on the host are unaware of it and still
attempt to reset the channels facing unnecessary timeouts.

This series addresses the above areas to provide support for stopping an MHI
channel, resuming it back, improved documentation and improving upon channel
state machine handling in general.

This set of patches was tested on arm64 architecture.

v5:
-Added reviewed-by tags from Hemant I missed earlier
-Added patch to prevent kernel warnings on clearing channel context twice

v4:
-Updated commit text/descriptions and addressed checkpatch checks
-Added context validity check before starting/stopping channels from new API
-Added patch to clear channel context configuration after reset/unprepare

v3:
-Updated documentation for channel transfer APIs to highlight differences
-Create separate patch for "allowing channel to be disabled from stopped state"

v2:
-Renamed the newly introduced APIs to mhi_start_transfer() / mhi_stop_transfer()
-Added improved documentation to avoid confusion with the new APIs
-Removed the __ prefix from mhi_unprepare_channel() API for consistency.

Subject: [PATCH v5 5/9] bus: mhi: core: Add support to stop or start channel data transfers

Some MHI client drivers may want to request a pause or halt of
data transfer activity on their channels. Support for this does
not exist and must be introduced, wherein the channel context is
not reset or cleared but only the STOP channel command is issued.
This would need to be paired with an API that allows resuming the
data transfer activity on channels by use of the START channel
command. This API assumes that the context information is already
setup. Enable this using two new APIs, mhi_start_transfer() and
mhi_stop_transfer().
