The patch spi: fix ctrl->num_chipselect constraint has been applied to the spi tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git for-5.3 All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From f9481b08220d7dc1ff21e296a330ee8b721b44e4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2019 14:38:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] spi: fix ctrl->num_chipselect constraint at91sam9g25ek showed the following error at probe: atmel_spi f0000000.spi: Using dma0chan2 (tx) and dma0chan3 (rx) for DMA transfers atmel_spi: probe of f0000000.spi failed with error -22 Commit 0a919ae49223 ("spi: Don't call spi_get_gpio_descs() before device name is set") moved the calling of spi_get_gpio_descs() after ctrl->dev is set, but didn't move the !ctrl->num_chipselect check. When there are chip selects in the device tree, the spi-atmel driver lets the SPI core discover them when registering the SPI master. The ctrl->num_chipselect is thus expected to be set by spi_get_gpio_descs(). Move the !ctlr->num_chipselect after spi_get_gpio_descs() as it was before the aforementioned commit. While touching this block, get rid of the explicit comparison with 0 and update the commenting style.
