Not to be confused with the similar series I posed for the _other_
Qualcomm SPI controller (spi-geni-qcom) [1], this one avoids the
overhead on the Quad SPI controller.

It's based atop the current Qualcomm tree including Rajendra's ("spi:
spi-qcom-qspi: Use OPP API to set clk/perf state"). As discussed in
individual patches, these could ideally land through the Qualcomm tree
with Mark's Ack.

Measuring:
* Before OPP / Interconnect patches reading all flash takes: ~3.4 seconds
* After OPP / Interconnect patches reading all flash takes: ~4.7 seconds
* After this patch reading all flash takes: ~3.3 seconds

Thanks Doug, I saw similar benefit on my setup with these patches. They do help
reduce the (unnecessary) additional overhead so it makes sense to merge these
along with the OPP/Interconnect patches in-order to avoid the regression.
