The patch

   spi: Extend the core to ease integration of SPI memory controllers

has been applied to the spi tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi: Extend the core to ease integration of SPI memory
 controllers

Some controllers are exposing high-level interfaces to access various
kind of SPI memories. Unfortunately they do not fit in the current
spi_controller model and usually have drivers placed in
drivers/mtd/spi-nor which are only supporting SPI NORs and not SPI
memories in general.

This is an attempt at defining a SPI memory interface which works for
all kinds of SPI memories (NORs, NANDs, SRAMs).
