From: Martin Sperl <[email protected]> In the spi_loopback_test driver there is the need to initialize a spi_message that is filled with values from a static structure.
Applying spi_message_init to such a prefilled structure results in all the settings getting reset to zero, which is not what we want. Copying each field of spi_message separately instead always includes the risk that some new fields have not been implemented in the copying code. So here we introduce a version of spi_message_init called spi_message_init_no_memset that does not fill the structure with zero first, but only initializes the relevant list_heads.
