Subject: [PATCH v3 1/5] spi: allow ancillary devices to share parent's chip selects
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 16:47:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213144742.16394-2-antoniu.miclaus@analog.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260213144742.16394-1-antoniu.miclaus@analog.com>

When registering an ancillary SPI device, the current code flags a chip
select conflict with the parent device. This happens because the
ancillary device intentionally uses one of the parent's chip selects,
but __spi_add_device() checks against all existing devices including
the parent.

Allow this by passing the parent device pointer to __spi_add_device()
and skipping the conflict check when the existing device is the parent.
