I don't really see the benefit of converting drivers one by one for
such a trivial/mechanical change to be honest. After all, we're talking
about adding a caps argument to spi_mem_default_supports_op() and
making all existing callers pass a caps object that's zero initialized.
I hope we can get this right in one shot...
