Could you elaborate what this bit mean?

If it's really required (is it?) then you were supposed to reflect
that in the code by returning a negative error if the driver fails to
retrieve the reset control handler. In accordance with that the
bindings should have been also updated so the dtbs_check procedure
would make sure the Thunder Bay SPI DT-node comply to the requirements
in that matter.

Anyway I've got a few comments regarding this part of your patch.
Please see them below.

I guess that KeemBay and ThunderBay SPI controllers have been
synthesized based on the same IP-core with a few differences. Is that
true? Could you tell us what is the difference between them?

Anyway regarding this the Master/Slave part. Is the ThunderBay
implementation of the Master/Slave capability the same as it was
embedded in the KeemBay controller? If so then what do you think about
just renaming DW_SPI_CAP_KEEMBAY_MST to something like
DW_SPI_CAP_INTEL_MST and using it then for both Keembay and ThunderBay
versions of the SPI-controllers? (The similar renaming needs to be
provided for the DWC_SSI_CTRLR0_KEEMBAY_MST macro then.) You can
implement it as a preparation patch posted before this one in the
series.

Similar question regarding the SSTE bit. Is it something ThunderBay
specific only? Was the corresponding functionality embedded into the
KeemBay or any other Intel version of the DW SPI controller?

Originally the DW_SPI_CAP-functionality was provided to modify the DW
SPI core driver behavior when it was required. For instance it was
mostly connected with the platform-specific CR0-register
configurations. So as I see it the reset part can be successfully
handled fully in the framework of the MMIO-platform glue-driver.
Instead of defining a new capability you could have just added the
next code in the ThunderBay init-method:

+	if (!dwsmmio->rstc) {
+		dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Reset control is missing\n");
+		return -EINVAL;
+	}
+
+	reset_control_assert(dwsmmio->rstc);
+	udelay(2);
+	reset_control_deassert(dwsmmio->rstc);
+

Thus you'd reuse the already implemented reset-controller handler
defined in the dw_spi_mmio structure with no need of implementing
a new capability.

Please see my comment above. We don't need to have this code here if
you get to implement what I suggest there.

Could you provide a bit more details what this bit has been
implemented for?

Please see my suggestion regarding the Master/Slave capability in one
of the comments above.
