[PATCH] spi: Set cs-gpios to output direction

Some gpios used for cs-gpios may not be configured for output by
default. In these cases gpio_set_value() won't have any effect
and so the chip select line won't toggle. Request the cs-gpios
and set them to output direction once we know if the chip select
is default high or default low.

I wonder if we should request the gpios when the master controller
probes or when a spi device is added? We only know what the default
value should be when the spi device is added. On the other hand,
we should probably fail probe if the gpio controller isn't ready when
the spi master controller probes.

Also, is it better to convert this over to the gpiod interfaces?
