Please keep the Makefile sorted.

Please make the entire comment block here a C++ one so it looks more
consistent.

This magic number for the size of the lookup table is not good.

This is just a gpio chip select - can't it be handled by the core chip
select code?

Rather than having a magic number for the buffer size it would be better
to either have a driver specific constant that's used consistently or
just use sizeof() when it's referenced in the code.  That way if the
buffer size is changed nothing will get missed.

I'm not clear what this is intended to do?  It's overall not clear to me
that the driver needs to use transfer_one_message and not transfer_one,
the latter keeps more of the code in common code.

Why not just size the array based on the platform data?
