3.6.11.3 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anatolij Gustschin [ Upstream commit 1ad849aee5f53353ed88d9cd3d68a51b03a7d44f ] Some SPI slave devices require asserted chip select signal across multiple transfer segments of an SPI message. Currently the driver always de-asserts the internal SS signal for every single transfer segment of the message and ignores the 'cs_change' flag of the transfer description. Disable the internal chip select (SS) only if this is needed and indicated by the 'cs_change' flag. Without this change, each partial transfer of a surrounding multi-part SPI transaction might erroneously change the SS signal, which might prevent slaves from answering the request that was sent in a previous transfer segment because the transaction could be considered aborted (SS was de-asserted before reading the response).
