Hmm yes we have "spi-cs-high" property set in the dts.

But looking at drivers/spi/spi-omap2-mcspi.c, it also
provides an option to use a GPIO for chip select in
omap2_mcspi_setup(). That does not seem to be used though
based on a quick grep though.

Sorry I don't know, maybe. If you have some test patch to
try I can easily test.
