I enclose a slightly cleaned-up version.  Comments, checkpath.pl,
and so on.  Could you eyeball make sure it still behaves?

Also, this is too much for one patch.  The transfer_delay and
cs_change stuff (fixing bugs #1-4) are plausibly one patch.
And the DMA stuff (#5-6) is plausibly a different patch.

Could you split those two out?  Then I'll submit them.

There should still be time; thanks for the ping.

One just cc's [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... I don't think the stable
team maintains anything that old though.  I cc'd Eric (at Marvell)
who is probably worth keeping in the loop in terms of PXA fixes.
The PXA platform is now getting an overhaul to help make the
PXA3xx changes work better ... yay!

p.s. Eric, it seems the pxa2xx_spi driver is in need of more
     active maintaining than it's got.  I seem to have a few
     other patches for it in my mailbox too...

========= CUT HERE
From: Ned Forrester <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Fixes several related bugs in the pxa2xx_spi driver.  These
bugs are in all versions of this driver (except for #6, which
was introduced in the 2.6.20 kernel) and prevent using it
with chips like m25p16 flash.

 1. The spi_transfer.cs_change flag is handled too early:
    before spi_transfer.delay_usecs applies, thus making the
    delay ineffective at holding chip select.

 2. spi_transfer.delay_usecs is ignored on the last transfer
    of a message (likewise not holding chipselect long enough).

 3. If spi_transfer.cs_change is set on the last transfer, the
    chip select is always disabled, instead of the intended
    meaning: optionally holding chip select enabled for the
    next message.  (Impact at least MMC-over-SPI.)

Those first three bugs were fixed with a relocation of delays
and chip select de-assertions.

 4. If a message has the cs_change flag set on the last transfer,
    and had the chip select stayed enabled as requested (see 3,
    above), it would not have been disabled if the next message is
    for a different chip.  Fixed by dropping chip select regardless
    of cs_change at end of a message, if there is no next message
    or if the next message is for a different chip.  

 5. Zero length transfers are permitted for use to insert timing,
    but pxa2xx_spi.c will fail if this is requested in DMA mode.
    Fixed by using programmed I/O (PIO) mode for such transfers.

 6. Transfers larger than 8191 are not permitted in DMA mode.  A
    test for length rejects all large transfers regardless of DMA
    or PIO mode.  Worked around by rejecting only large transfers
    with DMA mapped buffers, and forcing all other transfers larger than 8191
    to use PIO mode.  A rate limited warning is issued for DMA
    transfers forced to PIO mode.

This patch should apply to all kernels back to and including 2.6.20;
it was test patched against 2.6.20.  An additional patch would be
required for older kernels, but those versions are very buggy anyway.  

There are some additional issues when GPIOs aren't being used as
chipselects.  Probably the SSFRM support should be removed, and
the GPIO support switched over to use standard GPIO calls (and to
support SPI_CS_HIGH).
