[PATCH v2 8/8] spi: loopback-test: added support for HW-loopback mode

[kernel-TqfNSX0MhmxHKSADF0wUEw@public.gmane.org]

From: Martin Sperl <kernel-TqfNSX0MhmxHKSADF0wUEw@public.gmane.org>

If the module parameter "loopback" for testing RX to match TX
is not set and the spi_master supports SPI_LOOP then
SPI_LOOP as well as RX-data testing will get enabled.

When the "loopback" module parameter is set
then the SPI_LOOP support in spi_master will not get enabled,
which means that MOSI needs to get connected to MISO by some
other means (possibly via a simple jumper connection
or a SN74AHCT125 connecting MOSI/MISO)
