Argh ! Sorry your comment to the previous version ended up in Junk 
mails. I see it now.

We discussed that back in 2016 in 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-spi/20160824112701.GE22076@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ 
and my understanding at that time was that it was not something that 
could be done at core level.

But maybe things have changed since then ?

By the way, fsl-spi driver doesn't implement transfer_one() but 
transfer_one_message() so it takes care of the chipselect changes and 
therefore the final dummy transfer with CS off is to be done there as 
far as I understand.

Would it mean changing fsl-spi driver to implement transfer_one() first ?

Thanks
Christophe
