I don't think it really matters if the two patches meet up in linux-next
or cros-ec is fast tracked, but it would be bad if this patch was merged
without the cros-ec one. One option would be to apply the cros-ec fix to
the spi tree along with this patch (or vice versa) so that a bisection
hole isn't created. Or this patch can wait for a while until cros-ec is
fixed. I'm not the maintainer here so it's really up to Mark and
Enric/Benson.
