Sounds good. I think in another patch (13/17) there is a point about
how it's tough to get rid of cros_ec_cmd_xfer() without non-trivial
rework to a few drivers, but cros_ec_cmd() is certainly more concise.

My apologies, I should have edited it to say cros_ec_cmd_xfer()
instead of _status().
I'll update the documentation to just avoid the two altogether.

Sounds good. I will make the change.
