spi: Optionally use GPIO descriptors for CS GPIOs
This augments the SPI core to optionally use GPIO descriptors
for chip select on a per-master-driver opt-in basis.
Drivers using this will rely on the SPI core to look up
GPIO descriptors associated with the device, such as
when using device tree or board files with GPIO descriptor
tables.
When getting descriptors from the device tree, this will in
turn activate the code in gpiolib that was
added in commit
9c2ca910757d
("gpio: of: Handle SPI chipselect legacy bindings")
which means that these descriptors are aware of the active
low semantics that is the default for SPI CS GPIO lines
and we can assume that all of these are "active high" and
thus assign SPI_CS_HIGH to all CS lines on the DT path.
The previously used gpio_set_value() would call down into
gpiod_set_raw_value() and ignore the polarity inversion
semantics.
It seems like many drivers go to great lengths to set up the
CS GPIO line as non-asserted, respecting SPI_CS_HIGH. We pull
this out of the SPI drivers and into the core, and by simply
requesting the line as GPIOD_OUT_LOW when retrieveing it from
the device and relying on the gpiolib to handle any inversion
semantics. This way a lot of code can be simplified and
removed in each converted driver.
The end goal after dealing with each driver in turn, is to
delete the non-descriptor path (of_spi_register_master() for
example) and let the core deal with only descriptors.
The different SPI drivers have complex interactions with the
core so we cannot simply change them all over, we need to use
a stepwise, bisectable approach so that each driver can be
converted and fixed in isolation.
This patch has the intended side effect of adding support for
ACPI GPIOs as it starts relying on gpiod_get_*() to get
the GPIO handle associated with the device.
