I'm actually abandoning that series of commits, in favor of one more closely
related to the linux driver you're putting in place. I'd like to use the
spi-mem framework for U-boot as well. I will pursue it instead and try to
have something ready soon. I'm not entirely clear though from this message
if you are planning on doing that as well or are asking me to pursue it.
I'm entirely okay with you pursuing it, but until you tell me you are I will
keep working on it so as to hopefully get something ready for the next pull
window.

Thank you. As you make changes I will test them and provide my tested-by tag.
For now I only have an rk3326 to test them on, but I will do my best to be
thorough.
