BTW your comment isn't describing what the code does - the comment says
that having the memory operations means the driver can't be a regular
SPI controller while the code does not do that and only checks that if a
driver has memory ops it implements two required ones.  Indeed the
existing drivers that are updated to the new API continue to implement
normal SPI operations.
