Since commit 571e31fa60 ("spi: bcm2835: Cache CS register value for
->prepare_message()"), the number of slaves has been limited by a
compile-time constant. This was necessitated by statically-sized
arrays in the driver private data which contain per-slave register
values.
As suggested by Mark, move those register values to a per-slave
controller_state which is allocated on ->setup and freed on ->cleanup.
The limitation on the number of slaves is thus lifted.

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 Restructured Text 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.
