Note that the context for the MPC512x SPI driver will change in
3.14-rc1, so you will have to rebase after the merge window.

Reading the diff in the SPI master driver, the change appears to
be balanced, and replacing 'goto free_master' with immediate
return looks appropriate.

Can't comment on the correctness of removing the spi_master_put()
call when switching from spi_alloc_master() to
devm_spi_alloc_master().  This gets discussed in the other
subthread, dealing with the generic subsystem approach.
