ADI registers will make ADI controller registers chaos to lead incorrect results.
Then we need one hardware spinlock to synchronize between the multiple subsystems.
+The new version ADI controller supplies multiple master channels for different
+subsystem accessing, that means no need to add hardware spinlock to synchronize,
+thus change the hardware spinlock support to be optional to keep backward
+compatibility.

Required properties:
- compatible: Should be "sprd,sc9860-adi".
- reg: Offset and length of ADI-SPI controller register space.
-- hwlocks: Reference to a phandle of a hwlock provider node.
-- hwlock-names: Reference to hwlock name strings defined in the same order
- as the hwlocks, should be "adi".
- #address-cells: Number of cells required to define a chip select address
on the ADI-SPI bus. Should be set to 1.
- #size-cells: Size of cells required to define a chip select address size
on the ADI-SPI bus. Should be set to 0.

- sprd,hw-channels: This is an array of channel values up to 49 channels.

No need to add hardware spinlock proctection due to add multiple msater channel, so change it to be optional in documentation. Signed-off-by: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linaro.org> --- .../devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-sprd-adi.txt | 11 ++++++++--- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
