Subject: Applied "spi: spi-fsl-spi: relax message sanity checking a little" to the spi tree

The patch

   spi: spi-fsl-spi: relax message sanity checking a little

has been applied to the spi tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi: spi-fsl-spi: relax message sanity checking a little

The comment says that we should not allow changes (to
bits_per_word/speed_hz) while CS is active, and indeed the code below
does fsl_spi_setup_transfer() when the ->cs_change of the previous
spi_transfer was set (and for the very first transfer).

So the sanity checking is a bit too strict - we can change it to
follow the same logic as is used by the actual transfer loop.
