    bh_work() is in charge to schedule all HIF message from/to chip.
    
    On normal operation, when an IRQ is received, driver can get size of
    next message in control register. In order to save control register
    access, when chip send a message, it also appends a copy of control
    register after the message (this register is not accounted in message
    length declared in message header, but must accounted in bus request).
    This copy of control register is called "piggyback".
    
    It also handles a power saving mechanism specific to WFxxx series. This
    mechanism is based on a GPIO called "wakeup" GPIO. Obviously, this gpio
    is not part of SPI/SDIO standard buses and must be declared
    independently (this is the main reason for why SDIO mode try to get
    parameters from DT).
    
    When wakeup is enabled, host can communicate with chip only if it is
    awake. To wake up chip, there are two cases:
        - host receive an IRQ from chip (chip initiate communication): host
          just have to set wakeup GPIO before reading data
        - host want to send data to chip: host set wakeup GPIO, then wait
          for an IRQ (in fact, wait for an empty message) and finally send data
    
    bh_work() is also in charge to track usage of chip buffers. Normally
    each request expect a confirmation. However, you can notice that special
    "multi tx" confirmation can acknowledge multiple requests at time.
    
    Finally, note that wfx_bh_request_rx() is not atomic (because of
    control_reg_read()). So, in SPI mode, hard-irq handler only postpone all
    processing to wfx_spi_request_rx().
