[PATCH] spi: bcm2835: transform native-cs to gpio-cs on first spi_setup
kernel at martin.sperl.org

From: Martin Sperl <kernel at martin.sperl.org>
Transforms the bcm-2835 native SPI-chip select to their gpio-cs equivalent.
This allows for some support of some optimizations that are not
possible due to HW-gliches on the CS line - especially filling
the FIFO before enabling SPI interrupts (by writing to CS register)
while the transfer is already in progress (See commit: e3a2be3030e2)
This patch also works arround some issues in bcm2835-pinctrl which does not
set the value when setting the GPIO as output - it just sets up output and
(typically) leaves the GPIO as low. When a fix for this is merged then this
gpio_set_value can get removed from bcm2835_spi_setup.

There was a question if we could move the native-cs to GPIO in the driver
itself.
This patch implements this, but it is quite complex for the minimal gains.
Maybe the originally proposed simple warning recommending to use cs_gpio
in DT would be a sufficient alternative that introduces less code.
Tested with the following setup:
* native CS:
* mcp2515
* mmc_spi (patched to make it work on the RPI)
* gpio-CS:
* mcp2515
* enc28j60
* gpio-CS with "spi-cs-pol" set in DT:
* fb_st7735r
Note: that there is a possible the risk that a transfer (for a different
device) is running at the time of this change - maybe some "extra" bus-locking
is needed during the change of the GPIO function to output.
