FWIW, the problem is due to

+#define SPI_CS_CNT_MAX 4

in the offending patch, but apeed2400 FMC supports up to 5 SPI chip selects.

  static const struct aspeed_spi_data ast2400_fmc_data = {
         .max_cs        = 5,
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
         .hastype       = true,

Limiting .max_cs to 4 or increasing SPI_CS_CNT_MAX to 5 fixes the problem,
though of course I don't know if increasing SPI_CS_CNT_MAX has other side
effects.

Yeah, I was coming to a similar conclusion myself - the limit is just
too low.  I can't see any problem with increasing it.

It would cost a bit of memory and somewhat affect performance sine many
of the newly introduced loops are bound by SPI_CS_CNT_MAX and not by
num_chipselect.

It also might make sense to document the new limit somewhere. Prior
to this commit it was not limited at all.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-davinci.txt lists 5 chip
selects in its example for the use of cs-gpios.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-controller.yaml also does not
list a limit.

Thanks,
Guenter
