[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] EXYNOS: SPI: Support SPI_PREAMBLE mode

[Vadim Bendebury]

[the original patch removed, re-sending from a registered address]

So, I spent some more time debugging a system which requires this
patch: a system, where on a SPI interface a response to a command
could come way later then the command data transmission completes.

The original patch was trying to address many corner cases, but come
to think of it, in this situation the slave does not care about extra
data sent on the transmit interface, as otherwise there is no clock
and no data could be transferred from the slave.

Then, for this SPI interface we do not need to set the counter of
clocks, and do not need to keep adding more clocks if the data has not
been received yet, the clocks could be just free running. And then the
patch becomes much simpler, what do you think:
