No ... clock state should be valid *before* chipselect goes
active.  So I'm thinking the patch from Haavard is likely
the right change.

So at T0, some chip is selected (and never deselected) ...

... and at T1 CPOL is changed??  That's wrong.  There should

While it's inactive, sure -- no chip should care.
