Subject: [PATCH v2 08/14] spi: bcm63xx-hsspi: Handle cs_change correctly

The kernel SPI interface includes the cs_change flag that alters how
the CS behaves.

If we're in the middle of transfers, it tells us to unselect the
CS momentarily since the target device requires that.

If we're at the end of a transfer, it tells us to keep the CS
selected, perhaps because the next transfer is likely targeted
to the same device.

We implement this scheme in the HSSPI driver in this change.

Prior to this change, the CS would toggle momentarily if cs_change
was set for the last transfer. This can be ignored by some or
most devices, but the Microchip TPM2 device does not ignore it.

With the change, the behavior is corrected and the 'glitch' is
eliminated.
