Is there some reason that this struct definition cannot just be placed
in spi_altera.c and so save a whole extra file (and its inclusion)?


Hi Stephen,

It is needed for board configuration file to attach this platform data, which is used to choose between interrupt driven data transfer or polling method. The data transfer rate is usually faster for polling, as interrupt overhead is higher.

Best regards,
