[PATCH] ARM: dts: dir685: Drop spi-cpol from the display

[PATCH] ARM: dts: dir685: Drop spi-cpol from the display

[Linus Walleij]

The D-Link DIR-685 had its clock polarity set as active
low using the special SPI "spi-cpol" property.

This is not correct: the datasheet clearly states:
"Fix SCL to GND level when not in use" which is
indicative that this line is active high.

After a recent fix making the GPIO-based SPI driver
force the clock line de-asserted at the beginning of
each SPI transaction this reared its ugly head: now
de-asserted was taken to mean the line should be
driven high, but it should be driven low.

Fix this up in the DTS file and the display works again.

ARM SoC folks: please apply this directly to fixes if
you're OK with the patch.

As the merge window is now open, I just applied this to
the 'arm/late' branch.
