Linux bus numbers should match the numbers defined by the chip
manufacturer. This patch add's spi aliases to acheive that bus
naming convention.

Note:
- Patch was compile tested and built(ARCH=arm) on next-20170822.
- Patch was hardware tested on AM335x (McSPI controller) with
  spi flash chips.
- No build/run-time issues reported.
- At present bus numbers are represented as spi1 and spi2 in sysfs
  instead of spi0 and spi1, as defined in SOC schematics.
- The commit:
"spi: Pick spi bus number from Linux idr or spi alias"
(SHA1:9b61e302210eba55768962f2f11e96bb508c2408)
has introduced bus numbering which happens dynamically either
via Linux IDR or spi alias for master drivers.
- The commit:
"spi: omap: Allocate bus number from spi framework"
(SHA1:b590782afe0a99fca84f451252ed7e2d64b2f155)
is now using spi framework to allocate bus numbers.
