From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Oct 03 2014 - 20:30:40 EST


3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 08a707b87874eaaa0f336ab604ecd6e5e9f286dd upstream.

The obvious fix after the commit d9c73bb8a3a5 "spi: dw: add support for gpio
controlled chip select". This patch fixes the issue by using locally defined
temporary variable.
