[PATCH 2/2] spi: bcm2835: Allow platform to set realtime priority

[Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx>]

Revolution Pi (a set of IoT products based on the Raspberry Pi and
geared towards industrial usage) uses the bcm2835's SPI master to
interface with an IEC 61158 fieldbus, which requires its kworker thread
to run at a realtime priority.  To this end, allow the platform to
specify the desired priority.
