Currently, the DesignWare SPI controller driver supports only host mode. However, spi2 on the Kendryte K210 SoC supports only target mode, triggering an error message on e.g. SiPEED MAiXBiT since commit 98d75b9ef282f6b9 ("spi: dw: Drop default number of CS setting"): dw_spi_mmio 50240000.spi: error -22: problem registering spi host dw_spi_mmio 50240000.spi: probe with driver dw_spi_mmio failed with error -22 As spi2 rightfully has no "num-cs" property, num_chipselect is now zero, causing spi_alloc_host() to fail to register the controller. Before, the driver silently registered an SPI host controller with 4 chip selects. Reject target mode early on and warn the user, getting rid of the error message.
