From: Martin Sperl <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >From personal bad experience (even as the author of the original driver) it shows that native-cs is "somewhat" supported by the spi bus driver when using a buggy device tree. So make sure that the driver is warning in dmesg about this fact that we are running in a not supported mode that may have surprizing limitations.
