That sounds like a framework bug which should just be fixed - we
shouldn't be disrupting users of real chip selects when using a GPIO
chip select. Depending on the hardware we might need a chip select
assigned that isn't connected to anything for use while the GPIOs are
doing the real work but otherwise we shouldn't be breaking things.
