Now I look at these they look very much like the standard delay feature
that the SPI subsystem has already - are they?
Mark,

As Grygorii explained in previous postings (reproduced below), these delays are handled by the SPI hardware on Keystone and affect the delay between successive word tranmssion and has nothing to do with the delay you are talking about. Isn't the standard delay you mention here is between successive packets send down to the lower level driver (in this case spi-davinci.c) ?

Below is timing diagram which shows, in general, how these new parameters affect on words transmission over Keystone/Davinci SPI bus:

	C2TDELAY - Chip-select-active-to-transmit-start-delay
	T2CDELAY - Transmit-end-to-chip-select-inactive-delay
