[PATCH] spi: spi-imx: use threaded interrupt

[Lucas Stach <l.stach-bIcnvbaLZ9MEGnE8C9+IrQ@public.gmane.org>]

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer-bIcnvbaLZ9MEGnE8C9+IrQ@public.gmane.org>

The i.MX SPI driver fills/flushes the FIFOs in interrupt context. With
longer SPI messages this introduces big latencies in the system. Using
a threaded interrupt avoids this issue.
