spi: Add driver_override SPI device attribute
This attribute works the same was as the identically named attribute for PCI, AMBA, and platform devices. For reference, see: commit 3cf38571 ("ARM: 8256/1: driver coamba: add device binding path 'driver_override'") commit 3d713e0e ("driver core: platform: add device binding path 'driver_override'") commit 782a985d ("PCI: Introduce new device binding path using pci_dev.driver_override") If the name of a driver is written to this attribute, then the device will bind to the named driver and only the named driver. The device will bind to the driver even if the driver does not list the device in its id table. This behavior is different than the driver's bind attribute, which only allows binding to devices that are listed as supported by the driver. It can be used to bind a generic driver, like spidev, to a device.
