    sfc: Handle MCDI proxy authorisation · acd43a90
    Bert Kenward authored
    For unprivileged functions operations can be authorised by an admin
    function. Extra steps are introduced to the MCDI protocol in this
    situation - the initial response from the MCDI tells us that the
    operation has been deferred, and we must retry when told. We then
    receive an event telling us to retry.
    
    Note that this provides only the functionality for the unprivileged
    functions, not the handling of the administrative side.
