I went and looked at the driver and it was more complicated than what I
did so I wasn't sure if there was some more advanced functionality or
something that was trying to be achieved.
I admit, V1 of this hardware (in the RZ/A1) was easier than V2 (RZ/A2 & R-Car),
so I had to re-write our BSP driver when it came time to support RZ/A2.
Basically, when they added HyperFlash support...it 'changed' how SPI
support was working.
I agree with Sergei that it is always better to have a common driver for
common HW across different SoCs. However, it's not clear yet why there
needs to be increased complexity.
There were some good suggestions from the V2 series that I think complete
this driver. But I have not sent out a V3 until I can better understand
this 'competing' solution.
