4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jon Hunter <jonathanh@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 15d8374874ded0bec37ef27f8301a6d54032c0e5 upstream. On the Tegra124 Nyan-Big chromebook the very first SPI message sent to the EC is failing. The Tegra SPI driver configures the SPI chip-selects to be active-high by default (and always has for many years). The EC SPI requires an active-low chip-select and so the Tegra chip-select is reconfigured to be active-low when the EC SPI driver calls spi_setup(). The problem is that if the first SPI message to the EC is sent too soon after reconfiguring the SPI chip-select, it fails. The EC SPI driver prevents back-to-back SPI messages being sent too soon by keeping track of the time the last transfer was sent via the variable 'last_transfer_ns'. To prevent the very first transfer being sent too soon, initialise the 'last_transfer_ns' variable after calling spi_setup() and before sending the first SPI message.
