Why do we need that spi->mode line at all? Because it is there in almost all or at least many drivers. But I have tested with > spi->mode |= SPI_MODE_3; which should keep the mode intact. Right? That did not work either. So let's not derail the discussion by moving to the code of some specific driver. Even if that is wrong it does not solve what this patch wants to solve.
