[PATCH v3] spi: dts: sun4i: Add support for hardware-based wait time between words

From: Marcus Weseloh
Date: Sun Dec 13 2015 - 18:04:50 EST


Adds a new property "spi-word-wait-ns" to the spi-bus binding that allows
SPI slave devices to set a hardware based wait time between the
transmission of words. Also modifies the sun4i SPI master driver to make
use of the new property. This specific SPI controller needs 3 clock
cycles to set up the delay, which makes the minimum non-zero wait time
on this hardware 4 clock cycles.

Changes from v1:
* renamed the property for more clarity
* wait time is set in nanoseconds instead of number of clock cycles
* transparently handle the 3 setup clock cycles

Changes from v2:
* fixed typo in comment
* moved parameter to spi-bus binding, dropping the vendor prefix
* changed commit summary and description to reflect the changes

Some SPI controllers and devices support Dual and Quad SPI transfer mode.
It allows data in the SPI system to be transferred in 2 wires(DUAL) or 4 wires(QUAD).
