spi: core: allow defining time that cs is deasserted
For some SPI devices that support speed_hz > 1MHz the default 10 us delay when cs_change = 1 is typically way to long and may result in poor spi bus utilization. This patch makes it possible to control the delay at micro or nano second resolution on a per spi_transfer basis. It even allows an "as fast as possible" mode with: xfer.cs_change_delay_unit = SPI_DELAY_UNIT_NSECS; xfer.cs_change_delay = 0; The delay code is shared between delay_usecs and cs_change_delay for consistency and reuse, so in the future this change_delay_unit could also apply to delay_usec as well. Note that on slower SOCs/CPU actually reaching ns deasserts on cs is not realistic as the gpio overhead alone (without any delays added ) may already leave cs deasserted for more than 1us - at least on a raspberry pi. But at the very least this way we can keep it as short as possible. Signed-off-by: Martin Sperl <kernel@martin.sperl.org> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
