    spi: spi-imx: imx51: revert burst length calculation back to bits_per_word · df75470b
    Marc Kleine-Budde authored
    The patch 15a6af94 ("spi: Increase imx51 ecspi burst length based
    on transfer length") increased the burst length calculation in
    mx51_ecspi_prepare_transfer() to be based on the transfer length.
    
    This breaks HW CS + SPI_CS_WORD support which was added in
    6e95b23a ("spi: imx: Implement support for CS_WORD") and transfers
    with bits-per-word != 8, 16, 32.
    
    SPI_CS_WORD means the CS should be toggled after each word. The
    implementation in the imx-spi driver relies on the fact that the HW CS
    is toggled automatically by the controller after each burst length
    number of bits. Setting the burst length to the number of bits of the
    _whole_ message breaks this use case.
    
    Further the patch 15a6af94 ("spi: Increase imx51 ecspi burst
    length based on transfer length") claims to optimize the transfers.
    But even without this patch, on modern spi-imx controllers with
    "dynamic_burst = true" (imx51, imx6 and newer), the transfers are
    already optimized, i.e. the burst length is dynamically adjusted in
    spi_imx_push() to avoid the pause between the SPI bursts. This has
    been confirmed by a scope measurement on an imx6d.
    
    Subsequent Patches tried to fix these and other problems:
    
    - 5f66db08 ("spi: imx: Take in account bits per word instead of assuming 8-bits")
    - e9b220ae ("spi: spi-imx: correctly configure burst length when using dma")
    - c712c05e ("spi: imx: fix the burst length at DMA mode and CPU mode")
    - cf6d79a0 ("spi: spi-imx: fix off-by-one in mx51 CPU mode burst length")
    
    but the HW CS + SPI_CS_WORD use case is still broken.
    
    To fix the problems revert the burst size calculation in
    mx51_ecspi_prepare_transfer() back to the original form, before
    15a6af94 ("spi: Increase imx51 ecspi burst length based on
    transfer length") was applied.
