Indeed, I'm not exactly sure what happened. I'll make sure it is
removed.

The register set is named SPI_MST in the datasheet so I would prefer
keeping it that way. I don't think this is an issue as it is MSCC
specific anyway.
The SI interface can be controlled by three different IPs, their name in
the datasheet are SPI boot, SPI slave and SPI master. The DW IP in what
is referred to as SPI master. The two other IPs can't be used under
linux.

So I'd like to keep spi_mst in the defines and variable but I can
probably tweak the comment to avoid the confusion.

That's right, I can probably use dw_spi_set_cs here

Most likely not, for the same reason why the common code is not doing
it. The FIFO is definitively empty so the CS will be unset.
