spi_gpio driver
Generalize the old at91rm9200 "bootstrap" bitbanging SPI master driver as "spi_gpio", so it works with arbitrary GPIOs and can be configured through platform_data. Such SPI masters support: - any number of bus instances (bus_num is the platform_device.id) - any number of chipselects (one GPIO per spi_device) - all four SPI_MODE values, and SPI_CS_HIGH - i/o word sizes from 1 to 32 bits; - devices configured as with any other spi_master controller When configured using platform_data, this provides relatively low clock rates. On platforms that support inlined GPIO calls, significantly improved transfer speeds are also possible with a semi-custom driver. (It's still painful when accessing flash memory, but less so.) Sanity checked by using this version to replace both native controllers on a board with six different SPI slaves, relying on three different SPI_MODE_* values and both SPI_CS_HIGH settings for correct operation.

+ This simple GPIO bitbanging SPI master uses the arch-neutral GPIO
