[PATCH 3/3] spi: pxa2xx: Handle clock gating for GPIO chip select devices
From: Khalil
Date: Sun Apr 12 2026 - 12:33:30 EST
On Intel LPSS SPI controllers (Cannon Lake and later) with dynamic
clock gating (cs_clk_stays_gated=true), the SPI clock is gated when
no native chip select is asserted. When using a GPIO chip select
(via SPI_CONTROLLER_GPIO_SS), the SPI framework toggles the GPIO
and also calls the controller's set_cs callback.
Handle this in the pxa2xx cs_assert/cs_deassert functions: when the
device uses a GPIO chip select on an LPSS controller, assert native
CS in the control register to enable the clock, and force the clock
gate on. On deassert, restore both.
This is needed on platforms where serial-multi-instantiate installs
a GPIO chip select from the peripheral's ACPI GpioIo resource to
work around an incomplete cs-gpios property on the SPI controller.
