[PATCH] spi-imx: remove num-cs support, set num_chipselect to 4

The num-cs property is not considered useful, and no in-tree Device
Trees define it for spi-imx.
The default value to be used when no cs-gpios are defined is set to 4 to
give access to all native CS pins of modern i.MX SoCs (i.MX6 and newer).
In older SoCs, the number of CS pins varies (for example the i.MX27 has 3
CS pins on CSPI1 and CSPI2, and only a single CS on CSPI3). Attempting
to use the nonexisting CS pin would be an easy to notice DT
misconfiguration; making the driver catch this doesn't seem worthwhile.
