This patch series is continuation to previous patches mentioned in below link
http://marc.info/?l=linux-spi&m=145009963109143&w=2

i am re-initiating this series, Could you please help us to get this done?

what is dual parallel mode?
---------------------------
ZynqMP GQSPI controller supports Dual Parallel mode with following functionalities:
1) Supporting two SPI flash memories operating in parallel. 8 I/O lines.
2) Chip selects, data lines and clock are differ to both the flash devices
3) This mode is targeted for faster read/write speed and also doubles the size
4) Commands/data can be transmitted/received from both the devices(mirror),
   or only upper or only lower flash memory devices.
5) Data arrangement:
   With stripe enabled,
   Even bytes i.e. 0, 2, 4,... are transmitted on Lower Data Bus
   Odd bytes i.e. 1, 3, 5,.. are transmitted on Upper Data Bus.

i have tested this on top of latest git-hub master.
kindly suggest us the way, so that we can proceed further to add this support.
