Good point !

Unfortunately I'm using the spi controller on an imx6 ("fsl,imx51-ecspi") which
does not support dual or quad mode. So I cannot possibly test this :)

How would you like to proceed? Should I keep this as a private patch, and
wait until someone comes along who can test this on more capable
controller h/w ?

Or should I re-spin the patch without the flags?

Cheers,
Sven
