We have some new insights into the Serial Hub protocol, obtained through
reverse engineering. In particular, regarding the command structure. The
input/output target IDs actually represent source and target IDs of
(what looks like) physical entities (specifically: host, SAM EC, KIP EC,
debug connector, and SurfLink connector).

This series aims to improve handling of messages with regards to those
new findings and, mainly, improve clarity of the documentation and usage
around those fields.

See the discussion in

    https://github.com/linux-surface/surface-aggregator-module/issues/64

for more details.

There are a couple of standouts:

- Patch 1 ensures that we only handle commands actually intended for us.
  It's possible that we receive messages not intended for us when we
  enable debugging. I've kept it intentionally minimal to simplify
  backporting. The rest of the series patch 9 focuses more on clarity
  and documentation, which is probably too much to backport.

- Patch 8 touches on multiple subsystems. The intention is to enforce
  proper usage and documentation of target IDs in the SSAM_SDEV() /
  SSAM_VDEV() macros. As it directly touches those macros I
  unfortunately can't split it up by subsystem.

- Patch 9 is a loosely connected cleanup for consistency.

Hans, Jiri, Benjamin, Sebastian: While patch 8 ("platform/surface:
aggregator: Enforce use of target-ID enum in device ID macros") touches
multiple subsystems, it should be possible to take the whole series
through the pdx86 tree. The changes in other subsystems are fairly
limited.
