[ Upstream commit 17dc11a02d8dacc7e78968daa2a8c16281eb7d1e ]

The commit in Fixes has changed a devm_clk_get()/clk_prepare_enable() into
a devm_clk_get_enabled().
It has updated the error handling path of the probe accordingly, but the
remove has been left unchanged.

Remove now the redundant clk_disable_unprepare() call from the remove
function.

<title>spi: atmel: Fix clock issue when using devices with different polarities</title>

<id>fc70d643a2f6678cbe0f5c86433c1aeb4d613fcc</id>
<content type='text'>
The current Atmel SPI controller driver (v2) behaves incorrectly when
using two SPI devices with different clock polarities and GPIO CS.

When switching from one device to another, the controller driver first
enables the CS and then applies whatever configuration suits the targeted
device (typically, the polarities). The side effect of such order is the
apparition of a spurious clock edge after enabling the CS when the clock
polarity needs to be inverted wrt. the previous configuration of the
controller.

This parasitic clock edge is problematic when the SPI device uses that edge
for internal processing, which is perfectly legitimate given that its CS
was asserted. Indeed, devices such as HVS8080 driven by driver gpio-sr in
the kernel are shift registers and will process this first clock edge to
perform a first register shift. In this case, the first bit gets lost and
the whole data block that will later be read by the kernel is all shifted
by one.

    Current behavior:
      The actual switching of the clock polarity only occurs after the CS
      when the controller sends the first message:

    CLK ------------\   /-\ /-\
                    |   | | | |    . . .
                    \---/ \-/ \
    CS  -----\
             |
             \------------------

             ^      ^   ^
             |      |   |
             |      |   Actual clock of the message sent
             |      |
             |      Change of clock polarity, which occurs with the first
             |      write to the bus. This edge occurs when the CS is
             |      already asserted, and can be interpreted as
             |      the first clock edge by the receiver.
             |
             GPIO CS toggle

This issue is specific to this controller because while the SPI core
performs the operations in the right order, the controller however does
not. In practice, the controller only applies the clock configuration right
before the first transmission.

So this is not a problem when using the controller's dedicated CS, as the
controller does things correctly, but it becomes a problem when you need to
change the clock polarity and use an external GPIO for the CS.

One possible approach to solve this problem is to send a dummy message
before actually activating the CS, so that the controller applies the clock
polarity beforehand.

New behavior:

CLK     ------\      /-\     /-\      /-\     /-\
              |      | | ... | |      | | ... | |
              \------/ \-   -/ \------/ \-   -/ \------

CS      -\/-----------------------\
         ||                       |
         \/                       \---------------------
         ^    ^       ^           ^    ^
         |    |       |           |    |
         |    |       |           |    Expected clock cycles when
         |    |       |           |    sending the message
         |    |       |           |
         |    |       |           Actual GPIO CS activation, occurs inside
         |    |       |           the driver
         |    |       |
         |    |       Dummy message, to trigger clock polarity
         |    |       reconfiguration. This message is not received and
         |    |       processed by the device because CS is low.
         |    |
         |    Change of clock polarity, forced by the dummy message. This
         |    time, the edge is not detected by the receiver.
         |
         This small spike in CS activation is due to the fact that the
         spi-core activates the CS gpio before calling the driver's
         set_cs callback, which deactivates this gpio again until the
         clock polarity is correct.

To avoid having to systematically send a dummy packet, the driver keeps
track of the clock's current polarity. In this way, it only sends the dummy
packet when necessary, ensuring that the clock will have the correct
polarity when the CS is toggled.

There could be two hardware problems with this patch:
1- Maybe the small CS activation peak can confuse SPI devices
2- If on a design, a single wire is used to select two devices depending
on its state, the dummy message may disturb them.

If DMA is used, burst length should be set to the bus width of the DMA.
Otherwise, the SPI hardware will transmit/receive one word per DMA

Since this issue affects both transmission and reception, it cannot be

The commit 855a40cd8ccc ("spi: cadence: Add SPI transfer delays") adds a
delay after each transfer into the driver's transfer_one(). However,
the delay is already done in SPI core. So this commit unnecessarily
doubles the delay amount. Revert this commit.

<title>spi: atmel: Prevent spi transfers from being killed</title>

Upstream commit e0205d6203c2 ("spi: atmel: Prevent false timeouts on
long transfers") has tried to mitigate the problem of getting spi
transfers canceled because they were lasting too long. On slow buses,
transfers in the MiB range can take more than one second and thus a
calculation was added to progressively increment the timeout value. In
order to not be too problematic from a user point of view (waiting dozen
of seconds or even minutes), the wait call was turned interruptible.

Turning the wait interruptible was a mistake as what we really wanted to
do was to be able to kill a transfer. Any signal interrupting our
transfer would not be suitable at all so a second attempt was made at
turning the wait killable instead.

All being well, it was reported that JFFS2 was showing a splat when
interrupting a transfer. After some more debate about whether JFFS2
should be fixed and how, it was also pointed out that the whole
consistency of the filesystem in case of parallel I/O would be
compromised. Changing JFFS2 behavior would in theory be possible but
nobody has the energy and time and knowledge to do this now, so better
prevent spi transfers to be interrupted by the user.

Partially revert the blamed commit to no longer use the interruptible
nor the killable variant of wait_for_completion().

These defines are leftovers from previous versions of the blamed commit,
they are simply unused so drop them.

<title>spi: atmel: Do not cancel a transfer upon any signal</title>

The intended move from wait_for_completion_*() to
wait_for_completion_interruptible_*() was to allow (very) long spi memory
transfers to be stopped upon user request instead of freezing the
machine forever as the timeout value could now be significantly bigger.

However, depending on the user logic, applications can receive many
signals for their own "internal" purpose and have nothing to do with the
requested kernel operations, hence interrupting spi transfers upon any
signal is probably not a wise choice. Instead, let's switch to
wait_for_completion_killable_*() to only catch the "important"
signals. This was likely the intended behavior anyway.
