SSTE (Slave Select Toggle Enable)
When SSTE bit is set to 1, the slave select line will toggle between consecutive data frames, with the serial clock being held to its default value while slave select line is high.
When SSTE bit is set to 0, slave select line will stay low and clock will run continuously for the duration of the transfer. 

This bit is needed for SPI-slave devices like TPM used in Thunder Bay, which needs SSTE bit to be set in order to work. 
Hence SSTE is enabled only for Thunder Bay.

The existing reset code in spi-dw-mmio.c file will be reused to de-assert the SPI core by passing reset-names = "spi" in DTB. So the reset code added here will be removed.

Yes, they are synthesized based on Designware SPI IP core. 
The master/slave capability is same for both Keem Bay and Thunder Bay. 
Hence I will rename the macros and make the code generic and it will be part of upcoming patch.

Since both Keem Bay and Thunder Bay has same Master/Slave capability, I will keep the macro names generic.

SSTE bit is needed only for slave devices like TPM which are connected on Thunder Bay. 
There is no such slaves with this SSTE requirement on Keem Bay.

The existing reset code in spi-dw-mmio.c will be reused. 
So, this portion of the code will be removed in upcoming patch.

Since, existing reset code will be reused, this reset code will be removed as mentioned earlier.

When SSTE bit is set to 1, the slave select line will toggle between consecutive data frames, with the serial clock being held to its default value while slave select line is high.
When SSTE bit is set to 0, slave select line will stay low and clock will run continuously for the duration of the transfer.

Sure, this will be renamed in a generic way.
