Kumar Gala ff9f4771b5 [PATCH] SPI: Renamed bitbang_transfer_setup to spi_bitbang_setup_transfer and export it
Renamed bitbang_transfer_setup to follow convention of other exported symbols
from spi-bitbang.  Exported spi_bitbang_setup_transfer to allow users of
spi-bitbang to use the function in their own setup_transfer.

Imre Deak 4cff33f94f [PATCH] SPI: per-transfer overrides for wordsize and clocking
Some protocols (like one for some bitmap displays) require different clock
speed or word size settings for each transfer in an SPI message. This adds
those parameters to struct spi_transfer.  They are to be used when they are
nonzero; otherwise the defaults from spi_device are to be used.

The patch also adds a setup_transfer callback to spi_bitbang, uses it for
messages that use those overrides, and implements it so that the pure
bitbanging code can help resolve any questions about how it should work.

Vitaly Wool 8275c642cc [PATCH] spi: use linked lists rather than an array
This makes the SPI core and its users access transfers in the SPI message
structure as linked list not as an array, as discussed on LKML.

From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

  Updates including doc, bugfixes to the list code, add
  spi_message_add_tail().  Plus, initialize things _before_ grabbing the
  locks in some cases (in case it grows more expensive).  This also merges
  some bitbang updates of mine that didn't yet make it into the mm tree.

David Brownell 9904f22a72 [PATCH] spi: add spi_bitbang driver
This adds a bitbanging spi master, hooking up to board/adapter-specific glue
code which knows how to set and read the signals (gpios etc).

This code kicks in after the glue code creates a platform_device with the
right platform_data.  That data includes I/O loops, which will usually
come from expanding an inline function (provided in the header).  One goal
is that the I/O loops should be easily optimized down to a few GPIO register
accesses, in common cases, for speed and minimized overhead.

This understands all the currently defined protocol tweaking options in the
SPI framework, and might eventually serve as as reference implementation.

  - different word sizes (1..32 bits)
  - differing clock rates
  - SPI modes differing by CPOL (affecting chip select and I/O loops)
  - SPI modes differing by CPHA (affecting I/O loops)
  - delays (usecs) after transfers
  - temporarily deselecting chips in mid-transfer

A lot of hardware could work with this framework, though common types of
controller can't reach peak performance without switching to a driver
structure that supports pipelining of transfers (e.g.  DMA queues) and maybe
controllers (e.g.  IRQ driven).
