Improve the internal CEC documentation. In particular add a section that 
specifies that
transmit-related interrupts should be processed before receive interrupts.

+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

+The CEC driver should always process the transmit interrupts first before
