platform/surface: aggregator: Ignore command messages not intended for us
It is possible that we (the host/kernel driver) receive command messages that are not intended for us. Ignore those for now. The whole story is a bit more complicated: It is possible to enable debug output on SAM, which is sent via SSH command messages. By default this output is sent to a debug connector, with its own target ID (TID=0x03). It is possible to override the target of the debug output and set it to the host/kernel driver. This, however, does not change the original target ID of the message. Meaning, we receive messages with TID=0x03 (debug) but expect to only receive messages with TID=0x00 (host). The problem is that the different target ID also comes with a different scope of request IDs. In particular, these do not follow the standard event rules (i.e. do not fall into a set of small reserved values). Therefore, current message handling interprets them as responses to pending requests and tries to match them up via the request ID. However, these debug output messages are not in fact responses, and therefore this will at best fail to find the request and at worst pass on the wrong data as response for a request. Therefore ignore any command messages not intended for us (host) for now. We can implement support for the debug messages once we have a better understanding of them. Note that this may also provide a bit more stability and avoid some driver confusion in case any other targets want to talk to us in the future, since we don't yet know what to do with those as well. A warning for the dropped messages should suffice for now and also give us a chance of discovering new targets if they come along without any potential for bugs/instabilities.
