There are few use cases encountered where the master controller
depends on the slave parameters for some of its register
configure. Add an api in spi master which can be used to enable the
above feature.
Typical usecase encountered till now is
- ti qspi controller required flash opcodes to configure its set up
register for memory mapped operations.
There was another discussion on some LUT registers for some other
qspi controller in mailing list, these feature can also be used for
that case also.
