I have added this message because, using an x86 machine, the message:

"pxa2xx-spi pxa2xx-spi.13: registered master spi2"

doesn't appear in the kernel messages!

Yeah, it needs CONFIG_SPI_DEBUG.

Actually this info message doesn't necessarily tell will the driver end
up using DMA for transfers. See pxa2xx_spi_can_dma() and
pxa2xx_spi_transfer_one().

How about replacing "no DMA channels available, using PIO" and have
instead single info message telling is the DMA available or does the
driver use PIO only?

Ok, it's a good idea, to avoid to many similar messages.
So I can simply remove the:

"no DMA channels available, using PIO"

and leave only the new:

" pxa2xx-spi pxa2xx-spi.13: PXA2xx SPI master controller (PIO mode)"

Yes, something like that.

Now I remember, please also take into account driver is dual role since commit ec93cb6f827b ("spi: pxa2xx: Add slave mode support").
