Some MHI client drivers may want to request a pause or halt of
data transfer activity on their channels. Support for this does
not exist and must be introduced, wherein the channel context is
not reset or cleared but only the STOP channel command is issued.
This would need to be paired with an API that allows resuming the
data transfer activity on channels by use of the START channel
command. This API assumes that the context information is already
setup. Enable this using two new APIs, mhi_start_transfer() and
mhi_stop_transfer().

Hmm. The documentation about wait_for_completion*() used in
mhi_update_channel_state()says below,

"As all variants of wait_for_completion() can (obviously) block for a long time depending on the nature of the activity they are waiting for, so in
most cases you probably don't want to call this with held mutexes."

Yes, that is understood. The mhi_chan->mutex is only used to lock any channel enable/start/stop/disable type operations, since these have to be in order, it is essential that we wait for one of the operations to finish before the next
one.

Also we avoid a race, for example, at a time when a device crash forces a driver "remove" call, while an operation to start/stop a channel is already going on.

Align the comment header properly.

So I am trying to follow the documentation style for other functions in the same
file. Is there any particular format you want me to refer to?

I use all spaces for the lines after the first one to align them just like the
rest of them.

Thanks,
Mani
