[PATCH 1/3] spi_mpc83xx: Handles other Freescale processors

[Anton Vorontsov]

With this patch we'll able to select spi_mpc83xx driver on the MPC86xx
platforms. Let the driver depend on FSL_SOC, so we don't have to worry
about Kconfig anymore.

Also remove the "experimental" dependency, the driver has been tested
to work on a various hardware, and surely not experimental anymore.

this looks fine, but why don't we go ahead and rename things as well?   
SPI_MPC83xx -> SPI_MPC8xxx, spi_mpc83xx.c -> spi_mpc8xxx.c

mpc8xxx implies mpc82xx (e.g. mpc8272) which is not the same controller
as on the mpc83xx

True, but normally the 82xx drivers are "cpm" prefixed.  I think 8xxx  
is at better name than 83xx.
