Hi Matthew,

This driver is broken in upstream and it is work in progress to  fix  and 
update in upstream.
You can still fetch this from github as few other people have also reported the 
same.
On  github repo there are 2 version of driver. 

One with old xfer method and one with new spi-mem version. 
I am debugging the spi-mem version as this is the recommended version by 
maintainers .
LS1046 is working via both methods. There are some debug prints in spi-mem 
version.
