[PATCH v3 5/8] spi: core: add spi_merge_transfers method

kernel at martin.sperl.org kernel at martin.sperl.org
Mon Dec 14 07:20:22 PST 2015


From: Martin Sperl <kernel at martin.sperl.org>

Added method spi_merge_transfers which consolidates multiple
spi_transfers into a single spi_transfer making use of
spi_res for management of resources/reverting changes to the
spi_message structure.

Signed-off-by: Martin Sperl <kernel at martin.sperl.org>
