Hi Dmitry,

I have validated the new patch based off the 2.6.36-rc7 on
the ti_omap3530evm, it works fine.

Working here on pandora too, applied on top of linux-next (did not
test suspend though).

Not caused by this patch, but the old problem where lower measurement
bits get lost is back - when I draw diagonal line it looks like
stairs. I think it's caused by OMAP SPI driver, CCing linux-omap.

Yes, it is OMAP spi driver issues, I have met the same problem before, please refer to:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg91538.html

you can apply this patch and test again.

Subject: [PATCH] spi/omap2_mcspi: disable channel after TX_ONLY transfer in PIO mode

In TX_ONLY transfer, the SPI controller can also receive data
simultaneously and saves them in rx register. After the TX_ONLY
transfer, the rx register will hold random data received during
last tx transaction.

If the next transfer is RX_ONLY, this random data has
the possibility to affect this transfer like this:

 If the spi controller is changed from TX_ONLY to RX_ONLY mode,
 The random data makes the rx register full imediately and
 triggers a dummy write (in SPI RX_ONLY transfer, we need a dummy
 write to trigger the first transaction).

 So the first data received in RX_ONLY transfer will be that
 random data instead of something meaningfug.

We can avoid this by a Disable/reenable toggle of the spi channel
after the TX_ONLY transfer, since it purges the rx register.
