d7e2ee2570 spi: let SPI masters ignore their children for PM
Let all SPI masters ignore their children: when it comes
to power management: SPI children have no business doing
keeping their parents awake: they are completely autonomous
devices that just use their parent to talk, and the latter
usecase must be power managed by the host itself on a
per-message basis.

24c8cd1b08 spi: fix possible deadlock between internal bus locks and bus_lock_flag
External users may use spi_bus_lock to get exclusive access. This will
also grab the bus_lock_mutex and may therefore result in a deadlock if
__spi_pump_messages also tries to get the mutex.

Therefore adapt spi_pump_messages as well as spi_sync to preset the
bus_locked parameter according to the master->bus_lock_flag.

49023d2e4e spi: core: Fix deadlock when sending messages
The function __spi_pump_messages() is called by spi_pump_messages() and
__spi_sync(). The function __spi_sync() has an argument 'bus_locked'
that indicates if it is called with the SPI bus mutex held or not. If
'bus_locked' is false then __spi_sync() will acquire the mutex itself.

Commit 556351f14e ("spi: introduce accelerated read support for spi
flash devices") made a change to acquire the SPI bus mutex within
__spi_pump_messages(). However, this change did not check to see if the
mutex is already held. If __spi_sync() is called with the mutex held
(ie. 'bus_locked' is true), then a deadlock occurs when
__spi_pump_messages() is called.

Fix this deadlock by passing the 'bus_locked' state from __spi_sync() to
__spi_pump_messages() and only acquire the mutex if not already held. In
the case where __spi_pump_messages() is called from spi_pump_messages()
it is assumed that the mutex is not held and so call
__spi_pump_messages() with 'bus_locked' set to false. Finally, move the
unlocking of the mutex to the end of the __spi_pump_messages() function
to simplify the code and only call cond_resched() if there are no
errors.

CPU.  Code that does this should call cond_resched() every once in a

556351f14e spi: introduce accelerated read support for spi flash devices
In addition to providing direct access to SPI bus, some spi controller
hardwares (like ti-qspi) provide special port (like memory mapped port)
that are optimized to improve SPI flash read performance.
This means the controller can automatically send the SPI signals
required to read data from the SPI flash device.
For this, SPI controller needs to know flash specific information like
read command to use, dummy bytes and address width.

Introduce spi_flash_read() interface to support accelerated read
over SPI flash devices. SPI master drivers can implement this callback to
support interfaces such as memory mapped read etc. m25p80 flash driver
and other flash drivers can call this make use of such interfaces. The
interface should only be used with SPI flashes and cannot be used with
other SPI devices.

d780c3711d spi: core: added spi_resource management
SPI resource management framework used while processing a spi_message
via the spi-core.

The basic idea is taken from devres, but as the allocation may happen
fairly frequently, some provisioning (in the form of an unused spi_device
pointer argument to spi_res_alloc) has been made so that at a later stage
we may implement reuse objects allocated earlier avoiding the repeated
allocation by keeping a cache of objects that we can reuse.

This framework can get used for:
* rewriting spi_messages
  * to fullfill alignment requirements of the spi_master HW
  * to fullfill transfer length requirements
    (e.g: transfers need to be less than 64k)
  * consolidate spi_messages with multiple transfers into a single transfer
  when the total transfer length is below a threshold.
* reimplement spi_unmap_buf without explicitly needing to check if it has
  been mapped

a0a90718f1 spi: Let drivers translate ACPI DeviceSelection to suitable Linux chip select
In Windows it is up to the SPI host controller driver to handle the ACPI
DeviceSelection as it likes. The SPI core does not take any part in it.
This is different in Linux because we always expect to have chip select in
range of 0 .. master->num_chipselect - 1.

In order to support this in Linux we need a way to allow the driver to
translate between ACPI DeviceSelection field and Linux chip select number
so provide a new optional hook ->fw_translate_cs() that can be used by a
driver to handle translation and call this hook if set during SPI slave
ACPI enumeration.

44af792731 spi: Map SPI OF client IRQ at probe time
Currently the IRQs for SPI client devices, registered via device-tree,
are mapped when the client devices are registered. If the corresponding
irq-chip has not been probed yet, then the probing of the client device
will fail and will not be retried. Resolve this by mapping the IRQ at
probe time and allow the probe to be deferred if the IRQ is not yet
available.

If of_irq_get() returns an error that is not -EPROBE_DEFER, then assume
that the SPI client does not have an IRQ and set the IRQ number to zero
(which is equivalent to irq_of_parse_and_map()).

This is based on some inputs from Thierry Reding <treding@nvidia.com>.

a394d63519 spi: Fix documentation of spi_alloc_master()
Actually, spi_master_put() after spi_alloc_master() must _not_ be followed
by kfree(). The memory is already freed with the call to spi_master_put()
through spi_master_class, which registers a release function. Calling both
spi_master_put() and kfree() results in often nasty (and delayed) crashes
elsewhere in the kernel, often in the networking stack.

This reverts commit eb4af0f534.

Link to patch and concerns: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/3/269
or
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1209.0/00790.html

Alexey Klimov: This revert becomes valid after
94c69f765f when spi-imx.c
has been fixed and there is no need to call kfree() so comment
for spi_alloc_master() should be fixed.
