This part of this patch is breaking xilinx spi driver because when
spi_bitbang_start is called it goes through some if else...
and because bitbang->txrx_bufs is defined
it end up in this code
	} else if (!master->setup) {
		return -EINVAL;
	}

Probably the best solution is just revert this part of patch.
Mark: What do you think?

Thanks,
Michal
