You need to transition all the drivers doing things manually but yes.
As I keep saying all the GPIO handling needs to be completely
refactored.

I'm just guessing as to what the issue that he's seeing is but isn't
this just saying that the board pinmuxing is wrong?  If the board
doesn't want the pin to be used by the SPI controller it shouldn't be 
configuring it that way.
