I'm having a hard time getting enthusiastic about it TBH - can you not
just use spidev and live with the warning?
Ok, I can do that, but when I resend my patches and add "compatible =
'spidev'" to my DT I expect someone to complain again as my DT does not
describe the hardware.
That's the issue with kontron,user-spi too though :/
Yes, true.
But for obvious reasons this can't be considered a good solution and it
seems somewhat disturbing that the maintainer needs to propose it because of
lack of proper solutions ;)
Hey, I proposed other solutions you didn't want to implement!
Right, but you have to admit that the other solutions turned out to be
rather out of scope for someone like me who merely wants to use the
spidev driver.
But I don't blame you. I'm now having a better idea of how things are
(or aren't) supposed to look like. So thanks for your patience!
