Both of these are used exactly once, the defines aren't adding anything
except indirection.

The kernel is already versioned, don't include versions for individual
drivers - nobody is going to update it anyway.

No global variables, use driver data.

Remove this, if it's useful implement it generically.

Please write this expression in a more legible fashion, I can't really
tell what it's supposed to do.

This looks awfully like it's bitbanging the value out, can we not use
spi-bitbang here?

dev_dbg().

Why would we ever want the slow version?

This is reimplementing the core message queue code, provide a
transfer_one() operation if there's some reason not to use bitbang.

Similarly all the queue code is reimplementing core functionality.
