SPI_IOC_WR_MAX_SPEED_HZ command always sets spi->max_speed_hz
to the initial value come from DT.
It leads to set a wrong max speed with IOCTL call.

Fix the logic of a max speed assignment.

This is intentional.  It's doing a call to spi_setup() then restoring
the original value, the goal being just to run spi_setup() with the new
value - it's not really a good idea to change the maximum speed in the
first place.

In what way does it lead to the wrong speed being set?

If the expectation is that the default speed should be changed for the
device this should be handled at the spidev level rather than in the
core.

Now I see it.

After all, I reviewed the code and found out that the problem is not
in spidev_ioctl,
the problem is in spidev_message()'s debug message :)
The real code is ok:

drivers/spi/spidev.c: spidev_message():
...
                 k_tmp->speed_hz = u_tmp->speed_hz;
                 if (!k_tmp->speed_hz)
                        k_tmp->speed_hz = spidev->speed_hz;
...

but the debug message takes wrong value:
drivers/spi/spidev.c: spidev_message():
...
              dev_info(&spidev->spi->dev,
                      "  xfer len %u %s%s%s%dbits %u usec %uHz
(speed_hz=%d max_speed_hz=%d)\n",
                        u_tmp->len,
                        u_tmp->rx_buf ? "rx " : "",
                        u_tmp->tx_buf ? "tx " : "",
                        u_tmp->cs_change ? "cs " : "",
                        u_tmp->bits_per_word ? : spidev->spi->bits_per_word,
                        u_tmp->delay_usecs,
>>>                        u_tmp->speed_hz ? : spidev->spi->max_speed_hz);
...
It leads to debug messages like:

[ 1227.512806] spidev spi0.0: setup mode 0, 32 bits/w, 1000000 Hz max --> 0
[ 1227.541749] spidev spi0.0:   xfer len 4096 tx 32bits 0 usec 10000000Hz
..
[ 1227.616165] spidev spi0.0: setup mode 0, 32 bits/w, 2000000 Hz max --> 0
[ 1227.645095] spidev spi0.0:   xfer len 4096 tx 32bits 0 usec 10000000Hz
...
[ 1227.702714] spidev spi0.0: setup mode 0, 32 bits/w, 20000000 Hz max --> 0
[ 1227.731801] spidev spi0.0:   xfer len 4096 tx 32bits 0 usec 10000000Hz
...
So if one passes the message (using ioctl instead of write to fd) with
empty speed_hz,
the debug message tells the wrong real speed. It forced me to think in
the wrong direction.

Agree. I fixed the wrong place :)
I'll replace this patch with better one.

Thanx!
