Change the initialization order of the HW so that the interrupt
is only requested after the HW is initialized

Also the use of irq_of_parse_and_map is replaced by platform_get_irq.

<title>spi: bcm2835: BUG: fix wrong use of PAGE_MASK</title>

There is a bug in the alignment checking of transfers,
that results in DMA not being used for un-aligned
transfers that do not cross page-boundries, which is valid.

This is due to a missconception of the meaning PAGE_MASK
when implementing that check originally - (PAGE_SIZE - 1)
should have been used instead.

Also fixes a copy/paste error.

This resulted in the use of polling mode when other approaches
(dma or interrupts) would have been more appropriate.

Happened for transfers longer than 477 bytes.

<title>spi: bcm2835: set up spi-mode before asserting cs-gpio</title>

<content type='text'>
When using reverse polarity for clock (spi-cpol) on a device
the clock line gets altered after chip-select has been asserted
resulting in an additional clock beat, which confuses hardware.

This did not show when using native-CS, as the same register
is used to control cs as well as polarity, so the changes came
into effect at the same time. Unfortunately this is not true
with gpio-cs.

To avoid this situation this patch moves the setup of polarity
(spi-cpol and spi-cpha) outside of the chip-select into
prepare_message, which is run prior to asserting chip-select.

Also fixes resetting 3-wire mode after use of rx-mode, so that
a 3-Wire sequence TX, RX, TX works as well (right now it runs
TX, RX, RX instead)

fixes several warnings/error emmitted by the kbuild system:
* warn: cast from pointer to integer of different size
  using size_t instead of u32
* error: 'SZ_4K' undeclared
  moved to PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_MASK instead

Review showed also a typo in the same code where tx_buff
was checked twice instead of checking both rx and tx_buff.

<title>spi: bcm2835: enable dma modes for transfers meeting certain conditions</title>

<id>3ecd37edaa2a6ba3246e2c35714be9316b1087fe</id>

Conditions per spi_transfer are:
* transfer.len &gt;= 96 bytes (to avoid mapping overhead costs)
* transfer.len &lt; 65536 bytes (limitaion by spi-hw block - could get extended)
* an individual scatter/gather transfer length must be a multiple of 4
  for anything but the last transfer - spi-hw block limit.
  (some shortcut has been taken in can_dma to avoid unnecessary mapping of
   pages which, for which there is a chance that there is a split with a
   transfer length not a multiple of 4)

If it becomes a necessity these restrictions can get removed by additional
code.

Note that this patch requires a patch to dma-bcm2835.c by Noralf to
enable scatter-gather mode inside the dmaengine, which has not been
merged yet.

That is why no patch to arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2835.dtsi is included - the
code works as before without dma when tx/rx are not set, but it writes
a message warning about dma not used:
spi-bcm2835 20204000.spi: no tx-dma configuration found - not using dma mode

To enable dma-mode add the following lines to the device-tree:
        dmas = &lt;&amp;dma 6&gt;, &lt;&amp;dma 7&gt;;
        dma-names = "tx", "rx";

<title>spi: bcm2835: fallback to interrupt for polling timeouts exceeding 2 jiffies</title>

The polling mode of the driver is designed for transfers that run
less than 30us - it will only execute under those circumstances.
So it should run comfortably without getting interrupted by the
scheduler.

But there are situations where the raspberry pi is so overloaded
that it can take up to 80 jiffies until the polling thread gets
rescheduled - this has been observed especially under heavy
IO situations.

In such a situation we now fall back to the interrupt handler and
log the situation at debug level.
