SPI == Serial Peripheral Interface.  It is common in the embedded
world.  The 'bus' is nothing more than 4 signals: chip select, clock,
MOSI (master out, slave in) and MISO (master in, slave out).  Lots of
cool things live on the spi bus, but I'll just be committing support
for AT45 DataFlash parts.  The framework is general enough to support
other things.  In one of the hardware hacking lists I'm on, people
were talking about writing a driver for a SPI Ethernet whatsit, but
I'm unsure how that works, since there's no interrupt signal on this
bus...
