bit-flips (^=) the existing SPI_CS_HIGH setting in the SPI mode during
device probe.  This will set it to the wrong value if the spi-cs-high
property has been set in the devicetree node.  Just force it to be set
active high and get rid of some commentary that attempted to explain why
flipping the bit was the correct choice.

Linus being the gpio maintainer and Mark being the SPI maintainer, I'm
pretty sure this was correct at the time.

I'm not convinced. What value of `spi->mode & SPI_CS_HIGH` do you think the device should end up using? (I think it should end up using `SPI_CS_HIGH`, which was the case before commit 3b52093dc917, because the RTC chip requires active high CS.) What do you think the value of `spi->mode & SPI_CS_HIGH` will be *before* the `^=` operation? (For devicetree, that depends on the `spi-cs-high` property.)

I think the devicetree node for the RTC device ought to be setting `spi-cs-high` but cannot do so at the moment because the driver clobbers it.

Are you sure you are not missing an active high/low flag on a gpio
definition?

The CS might be internal to the SPI controller, not using a GPIO line (`cs-gpios` property). SPI peripheral device drivers shouldn't care if CS is using GPIO or not.
