Add two sysfs attrs named "access_primary" and "access_backup"

If you're proposing this patch for upstream then it needs to be based on
an upstream kernel tree, not the OpenBMC kernel tree. You also should
not use e.g. `linux dev-5.15` in the patch subject prefix, as that would
be inappropriate for an upstream patch.

As you're adding sysfs attributes you'll also need to add the
corresponding ABI documentation.

Yes. I think we need to discuss the ABI/sysfs files a bit. I am not
sure we should toggle the sysfs files depending on the boot mode :
primary vs. alternate. We could have the same files always and return
EIO if some conditions are not met. Something like :

* boot mode : primary/alternate. Write changes the next boot.
* watchdog management

Also, there is no need to introduce a new include file with large
inline functions.

Thanks,

C.
