spi: dw: Simplify the SPI bus speed config procedure
The code currently responsible for the SPI communication speed setting up is a bit messy. Most likely for some historical reason the bus frequency is saved in the peripheral chip private data. It's pointless now since the custom communication speed is a SPI-transfer-specific thing and only if there is no SPI transfer data specified (like during the SPI memory operations) it can be taken from the SPI device structure. But even in the later case there is no point in having the clock divider and the SPI bus frequency saved in the chip data, because the controller can be used for both SPI-transfer-based and SPI-transfer-less communications. From software point of view keeping the current clock divider in an SPI-device specific storage may give a small performance gain (to avoid sometimes a round-up division), but in comparison to the total SPI transfer time it just doesn't worth saving a few CPU cycles in comparison to the total SPI transfer time while having the harder to read code. The only optimization, which could worth preserving in the code is to avoid unnecessary DW SPI controller registers update if it's possible. So to speak let's simplify the SPI communication speed update procedure by removing the clock-related fields from the peripheral chip data and update the DW SPI clock divider only if it's really changed. The later change is reached by keeping the effective SPI bus speed in the internal DW SPI private data.
