Hi Mark,

Yes, you are right. If the t->speed_hz is not provided, it will use
spi->max_speed_hz.
This patch is not needed.
The issue I met is that t->speed_hz is not provided in slave mode. But this
is normal in slave mode.
The problem is spi-imx should not config the clock divider in slave mode. I
will send a new patch to disable the clock configuration in slave mode
later.

However, I notice that you have applied this patch to the next branch?
Will you revert this patch?
I think you may want to apply this patch I sent before.

    spi: imx: add 16/32 bits per word support for slave mode
    
    Enable 16/32 bits per word support for spi-imx slave mode.
    It only support 8 bits per word in slave mode before.

Thank you very much! :)
