spi core: Add new sysfs 'num_chipselect' fileColibri_VF_LinuxImageV2.6Beta1_20160331

Add new sysfs 'num_chipselect' file to expose the maximum number
of chipselects a SPI master can support.
This allows to create a script in user space which automatically
creates a new spidev instance for every chipselect on a bus.
