[PATCHv3 1/2] spi: Add Flag to Enable Slave Select with GPIO Chip Select.

From: tthayer
Date: Mon Oct 10 2016 - 10:20:06 EST


From: Thor Thayer <tthayer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some SPI masters require slave selection before the transfer
can begin [1]. The SPI framework currently selects the chip using
either 1) the internal CS mechanism or 2) the GPIO CS, but not both.

This patch adds a new master->flags define to indicate both the GPIO
CS and the internal chip select mechanism should be used.

Tested On:
Altera CycloneV development kit
Compile tested for build errors on x86_64 (allyesconfigs)

[1] DesignWare dw_apb_ssi Databook, Version 3.20a (page 39)

v2 Move changes to SPI framework based on maintainer comments
Add a new SPI master boolean variable.
v3 Change boolean variable to master->flags based on comments
