Merge series from Félix Piédallu <felix.piedallu@non.se.com>: These patches fix the behaviour of the SPI Chip Select of the OMAP2 MCSPI driver used on TI SoCs. The omap2-mcspi driver supports the use of multi mode (multichannel in TI documentation). In this mode, the CS is asserted and deasserted by the hardware. The multi mode is disabled for messages when cs_change=0 for all transfers (e.g when CS is kept asserted between transfers of a same message). The multi mode also needs to be disabled for messages when cs_change=1 on the last transfer (e.g when CS is kept asserted after the WHOLE message), and the message right after. Currently, that is not the case and it CS is deasserted by hardware when it shouldn't. This breaks peripheral drivers that send multiple messages with the CS asserted in between. Patch 1 ensures that multi mode is disabled when cs_change=1 on the last transfer of the message. Patch 2 ensures that multi mode is disable on a message following one with cs_change=1 on the last transfer. This is the case for the TPM TIS SPI driver that uses this logic for flow control purposes. Tested on an AM6442 platform with a TPM ST33HTPH2X32AHE4.
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
