In that case I am extremely confused about what the feature is supposed to do. The description says: + brcm,no-clk-gate: + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag + description: + Some SPI device such as Broadcom ISI based voice daughtercard requires +SPI + clock running even when chip select is deasserted. By default the + controller turns off or gate the clock when cs is not active to save + power. This flag tells the controller driver to keep the clock running + when chip select is not active. which to me sounds like the clock should never be turned off and instead left running at all times. Switching back to clock gating after sending the message doesn't seem to correspond to the above at all, the message being done would normally also be the point at which chip select is deasserted.
