[PATCH v5 4/9] spi: add multi_lane_mode field to struct spi_transfer

[David Lechner]

Add a new multi_lane_mode field to struct spi_transfer to allow
peripherals that support multiple SPI lanes to be used with a single
SPI controller.

This requires both the peripheral and the controller to have multiple
serializers connected to separate data lanes. It could also be used with
a single controller and multiple peripherals that are functioning as a
single logical device (similar to parallel memories).

v4 changes:
* Shortened commit message (useful info will be in docs instead).
* Added whitespace to create clear grouping of macros and the field.

v3 changes:
* Renamed "buses" to "lanes" to reflect devicetree property name change.
