Merge tag 'spi-v3.14-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi
Pull spi updates from Mark Brown: "A respun version of the merges for the pull request previously sent with a few additional fixes. The last two merges were fixed up by hand since the branches have moved on and currently have the prior merge in them. Quite a busy release for the SPI subsystem, mostly in cleanups big and small scattered through the stack rather than anything else: - New driver for the Broadcom BC63xx HSSPI controller - Fix duplicate device registration for ACPI - Conversion of s3c64xx to DMAEngine (this pulls in platform and DMA changes upon which the transiton depends) - Some small optimisations to reduce the amount of time we hold locks in the datapath, eliminate some redundant checks and the size of a spi_transfer - Lots of fixes, cleanups and general enhancements to drivers, especially the rspi and Atmel drivers" * tag 'spi-v3.14-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi: (112 commits) spi: core: Fix transfer failure when master->transfer_one returns positive value spi: Correct set_cs() documentation spi: Clarify transfer_one() w.r.t. spi_finalize_current_transfer() spi: Spelling s/finised/finished/ spi: sc18is602: Convert to use bits_per_word_mask spi: Remove duplicate code to set default bits_per_word setting spi/pxa2xx: fix compilation warning when !CONFIG_PM_SLEEP spi: clps711x: Add MODULE_ALIAS to support module auto-loading spi: rspi: Add missing clk_disable() calls in error and cleanup paths spi: rspi: Spelling s/transmition/transmission/ spi: rspi: Add support for specifying CPHA/CPOL spi/pxa2xx: initialize DMA channels to -1 to prevent inadvertent match spi: rspi: Add more QSPI register documentation spi: rspi: Add more RSPI register documentation spi: rspi: Remove dependency on DMAE for SHMOBILE spi/s3c64xx: Correct indentation spi: sh: Use spi_sh_clear_bit() instead of open-coded spi: bitbang: Grammar s/make to make/to make/ spi: sh-hspi: Spelling s/recive/receive/ spi: core: Improve tx/rx_nbits check comments ...
