platform/chrome: cros_ec_proto: ignore unnecessary wakeups on old ECs
ECs that don't implement EC_CMD_HOST_EVENT_GET_WAKE_MASK should still have some reasonable default mask -- otherwise, they'll treat a variety of EC signals as spurious wakeups. Battery and AC events can be especially common, for devices that have been sitting at full charge plugged into AC for a long time, as they may cycle their charging off and on, or their battery may start reporting failures as it ages. Treating these as wakeups does not serve a useful purpose, and is instead often counterproductive. And indeed, later ECs (that implement the mask) don't include these events in their wake-mask. Note that this patch doesn't do anything without the subsequent patch ("platform/chrome: cros_ec_proto: check for missing EC_CMD_HOST_EVENT_GET_WAKE_MASK"), because cros_ec_get_host_event_wake_mask() currently does not return an error if EC_CMD_HOST_EVENT_GET_WAKE_MASK is not implemented. Some additional notes: While the EC typically knows not to wake the CPU for these unimportant events once the CPU reaches a sleep state, it doesn't really have a way to know that the CPU is "almost" asleep, unless it has support for EC_CMD_HOST_SLEEP_EVENT. Alas, these older ECs do not support that command either, so this solution is not 100% complete.
