[PATCH 2/3] spi: spi-gpio: Delete references to non-GENERIC_BITBANG

[Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The non-generic bitbang was a feature where a platform could optimize
SPI bit-banging by inlining the routines to hammer GPIO lines into
the GPIO bitbanging driver as direct register writes using a custom
set of GPIO library calls.

It does not work with multiplatform concepts, violates everything
about how GPIO is made generic and is just generally a bad idea,
even on legacy system. Also there is no single user in the entire
kernel (for good reasons).

Delete the remnants of this optimization.

- * Because the overhead of going through four GPIO procedure calls
- * per transferred bit can make performance a problem, this code
- * is set up so that you can use it in either of two ways:
- *
- *   - The slow generic way:  set up platform_data to hold the GPIO
- *     numbers used for MISO/MOSI/SCK, and issue procedure calls for
- *     each of them.  This driver can handle several such busses.
- *
- *   - The quicker inlined way:  only helps with platform GPIO code
- *     that inlines operations for constant GPIOs.  This can give
- *     you tight (fast!) inner loops, but each such bus needs a
- *     new driver.  You'll define a new C file, with Makefile and
- *     Kconfig support; the C code can be a total of six lines:
- *
- *		#define DRIVER_NAME	"myboard_spi2"
- *		#define	SPI_MISO_GPIO	119
- *		#define	SPI_MOSI_GPIO	120
- *		#define	SPI_SCK_GPIO	121
