Thank you for your response as always!

This will make v5 a lot easier for me to keep straight. I think this one
might also be a good one to submit earlier, since it actually does
change behavior:

pinctrl: ocelot: update pinctrl to automatic base address

I'd probably want to drag this trivial one along as well:

pinctrl: ocelot: combine get resource and ioremap into single call

Haven't tried faster speeds. During the early days there was an error on
my setup due to too long of wires. Crosstalk / capacitance... I slowed
the SPI bus to a crawl while debugging that and never turned it back up.

If it'll help anyone: transitions on the MOSI I believe were causing
glitches on the CS line. This made the VSC7512 sad.

I'll fix it. Thanks.

Thank you. I'll remove these and the ones below.

Before diving in, I'd come across mfd and thought that might be the
answer. I'll reconsider it now that I have several months of staring at
kernel code under my belt. Maybe an mfd that does SPI setup and chip
resetting. Then I could remove all SPI code from ocelot_vsc7512_spi.
