+STMicroelectronics STM32 SPI Controller
+
+The STM32 SPI controller is used to communicate with external devices using
+the Serial Peripheral Interface. It supports full-duplex, half-duplex and
+simplex synchronous serial communication with external devices. It supports
+from 4 to 32-bit data size. Although it can be configured as master or slave,
+only master is supported by the driver.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Must be "st,stm32-spi".
+- reg: Offset and length of the device's register set.
+- interrupts: Must contain the interrupt id.
+- clocks: Must contain an entry for spiclk (which feeds the internal clock
+ generator).
+- #address-cells: Number of cells required to define a chip select address.
+- #size-cells: Should be zero.
+
+Optional properties:
+- resets: Must contain the phandle to the reset controller.
+- A pinctrl state named "default" may be defined to set pins in mode of
+ operation for SPI transfer.
+- dmas: DMA specifiers for tx and rx dma. DMA fifo mode must be used. See the
+ STM32 DMA bindings, Documentation/devicetree/bindings/dma/stm32-dma.txt.
+- dma-names: DMA request names should include "tx" and "rx" if present.
+- cs-gpios: list of GPIO chip selects. See the SPI bus bindings,
+ Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-bus.txt
+
+
+Child nodes represent devices on the SPI bus
+ See ../spi/spi-bus.txt
+
+Optional properties:
+- st,spi-midi-ns: (Master Inter-Data Idleness) minimum time delay in
+ nanoseconds inserted between two consecutive data frames.
+
+
+Example:
+ spi2: spi@40003800 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ compatible = "st,stm32-spi";
+ reg = <0x40003800 0x400>;
+ interrupts = <36>;
+ clocks = <&rcc SPI2_CK>;
+ resets = <&rcc 1166>;
+ dmas = <&dmamux1 0 39 0x400 0x01>,
+ <&dmamux1 1 40 0x400 0x01>;
+ dma-names = "rx", "tx";
+ pinctrl-0 = <&spi2_pins_b>;
+ pinctrl-names = "default";
+ status = "okay";

Don't show status in examples.

Ok.
+ cs-gpios = <&gpioa 11 0>;
+
+ spidev@0 {
+ compatible = "spidev";

This is not a valid compatible. Pick a real device.
Ok this was just to illustrate the optional property st,spi-midi-ns.

I will send a new patch to fix these issues.
Thanks,
