[PATCH] spi: spi-cadence: Fix SPI CS gets toggling sporadically

From: Amit Kumar Mahapatra

From: Sai Krishna Potthuri <lakshmi.sai.krishna.potthuri@xxxxxxxxxx>

As part of unprepare_transfer_hardware, SPI controller will be disabled
which will indirectly deassert the CS line. This will create a problem
in some of the devices where message will be transferred with
cs_change flag set(CS should not be deasserted).
As per SPI controller implementation, if SPI controller is disabled then
all output enables are inactive and all pins are set to input mode which
means CS will go to default state high(deassert). This leads to an issue
when core explicitly ask not to deassert the CS (cs_change = 1). This
patch fix the above issue by checking the Slave select status bits from
configuration register before disabling the SPI.
