This sounds reasonable to me.

OK I think this makes sense too but it might be a bit clearer to do:

if (list_is_last()) {
    if (cs_change)
        keep_cs = false;
    else
        bcm63xx_hsspi_set_cs(bs, spi->chip_select, false);
}

The gating condition here is when we reach the final transfer. But
list_is_last() is more expensive, so that's another consideration.

Can you explain this please?
