I just don't see this as something that should be being varied at
runtime; it is supposed to be the maximum speed that the bus can be run
at, that's not something that should vary at runtime.  Possibly a sysfs
thing but honestly if you're prototyping via spidev I'd just set the
speed in your application each time it starts.
