Thank you for excellent review!  I'll look at each comments surely
will update the driver but it may take a few days.

For now, I'm quite sure your patch is OK for me except for one thing:

Name it spi_txx9.c, please ;)

And for mmiowb() issue, I put it just only I was not sure whether
gpio_set_value() guarantee I/O barrier.  Now I see i2c-gpio.c, etc. do
not have such barriers.  I will remove these barriers and fix platform
gpio codes.
