Unfortunately we already have two fairly significant
drivers/spi/xilinx_spi.c patches queued in -mm:
spi-move-more-spi_setup-functionality-into-core.patch and
spi-move-common-spi_setup-functionality-into-core.patch.  Applying this
patch on top of those makes rather a mess.

Hopefully things will still be OK if I skip this patch.  You didn't
identify the dependencies between those nine patchs.  Can you please
explain that?
