Hi Jeffy,

I believe Doug's point was larger than just the CS line. He was
guessing that you're also stopping driving any of the other pins (e.g.,
CLK), which could cause more problems. Seems like it'd be good to note
that in the second sentence here.

Hmm, this doens't exactly feel like a situation for 'goto'. Personally,
an indented 'if' block would make this clearer:

	if (new_ser != ser) {
		... // all the stuff you do only on CS edges
	}

Replace "CS" with "all pins"? And:
s/power/powered/

To make this clearer, note that we're keeping an unbalanced runtime PM
reference on purpose. Like instead of "we need to keep it alive after CS
asserted", maybe "we hold a runtime PM reference as long as CS is
asserted."?

I still had to read this through a few times to be sure it was right (I
think it's correct?). Maybe to make this extra clear, a comment like
"Drop reference from when we first asserted CS" could go above this?

You've dropped the "_sync()" that used to be here. I think that's
probably fine, but I wanted to call it out.
