Note, if hz == 0 when t == NULL, you can unify that check with the below.

Something like

  if (t && _spi->hz != t->speed_hz)
    ...(..., t->speed_hz);

In such a case you won't need a temporary variable.

Yes.

What do you mean and how does it help here?

Then the obvious question, why are they located in *.h?
