I left below the comments I think should be addressed besides style.
Please, comment what you think about them.

It's up to SPI subsystem maintainer, though I couldn't consider the
quality of the driver is enough to include to upstream. You may try to
ask Greg to go to staging if you have real demand of this.

I don't support the way of submitting patch on top of submiting
something that must be just fixed.

I hope you understand it's not an exuce.

Good.

See above.
