[PATCH 1/2] spi: dt-bindings: qcom,spi-geni-qcom: Add property to force GSI mode
From: Pengyu Luo
Date: Sun Jun 14 2026 - 04:36:03 EST
Some devices (such as gaokun3) do not disable FIFO mode, causing the
driver to fallback to FIFO mode by default. However, these platforms
also support GSI mode, which is highly preferred for certain
peripherals like SPI touchscreens to improve performance.
Introduce the "qcom,force-gsi-mode" device property to hint and force
the controller into GSI mode during initialization.
