Implementing the interrupt handler
----------------------------------
Typically the CEC hardware provides interrupts that signal when a transmit
finished and whether it was successful or not, and it provides and interrupt
when a CEC message was received.
The CEC driver should always process the transmit interrupts first before
handling the receive interrupt. The framework expects to see the cec_transmit_done
call before the cec_received_msg call, otherwise it can get confused if the
received message was in reply to the transmitted message.
