This doesn't really make sense I'm afraid. The umbrella term
"spi_controller" can refer to either a master or a slave.
One has to specify on allocation which of the two is desired.
An API which purports to allow allocation of the umbrella term
but defaults to a master behind the scenes seems misleading to me.
Yes, we'd need to either have two wrappers using some more appropriate
terminology than master/slave or have a parameter which specifies the
role.
Do you mean to introduce two more proper wrappers to instead of
devm_spi_alloc_master/slave() ?
Thanks,
Yang
