Introduce support for MULTI-mode in the OMAP2 MCSPI driver. Currently, the driver always uses SINGLE mode to handle the chip select (CS). With this enhancement, MULTI-mode is enabled for specific messages, allowing for a shorter delay between CS enable and the message (some FPGA devices are sensitive to this delay). The OMAP2 MCSPI device can use two different mode to send messages, SINGLE and MULTI: In SINGLE mode, the controller only leverages one single FIFO, and the host system has to manually select the CS it wants to enable. In MULTI mode, each CS is bound to a FIFO, the host system then writes the data to the relevant FIFO, as the hardware will take care of the CS The drawback of multi-mode is that it's not possible to keep the CS enabled between each words. Therefore, this patch enables multi-mode only for specific messages: the spi_message must contain only spi_transfer of 1 word (of any size) with cs_change enabled. A new member is introduced in the omap2_mcspi structure to keep track of the current used mode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
