This is on a CometLake platform. We are probing the SPI_CS line on a scope.
Even though the writes to SPI_CS_CONTROL register are successful, it doesnât toggle the CS line.
Hence checking on a scope is better.

Easy way to test this is to program the cs control register via iotools and see if the CS line toggles.
This has to be done after one cycle of S0ix.

This behavior is seen after S0ix resume, but it is not seen after S3 resume.
I am thinking that it happens because we are not enabling the SSP after resume.
It is deferred until we need to send data. By enabling the SSP in resume, I donât see the issue.
For S3, I think BIOS re-enables the SSP in resume flow.
