Subject: spi: spi-fsl-spi: relax message sanity checking a little
From: Rasmus Villemoes <rasmus.villemoes@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 17ecffa289489e8442306bbc62ebb964e235cdad upstream.
The comment says that we should not allow changes (to
bits_per_word/speed_hz) while CS is active, and indeed the code below
does fsl_spi_setup_transfer() when the ->cs_change of the previous
spi_transfer was set (and for the very first transfer).
So the sanity checking is a bit too strict - we can change it to
follow the same logic as is used by the actual transfer loop.
