This change set modifies the MPC512x PSC SPI master driver:
- it increases SPI throughput by eliminating delays in the inner RX/TX
routine during iteration over the transfer's data, and reducing delays
at the very end of a transfer -- while the conditions for as well as
the handling of previously handled exceptional situations are kept
- it makes the SPI master switch to the common subsystem's logic to
queue messages between the callers' emission and the master's
transmission (and drops the master's private queue mechanism)
Gerhard Sittig (3):
spi: mpc512x: minor prep before feature change
spi: mpc512x: improve throughput in the RX/TX func
spi: mpc512x: use the SPI subsystem's message queue

known issue:
the first patch raises a checkpatch warning because it merely renames
variables but keeps the code path and the existing diagnostics message
in place
a subsequent change in the second patch rephrases the RX/TX routine's
code path and changes the diagnostics message for that condition to
something which doesn't have the checkpatch issue (keeps the user
visible text on one line) and thus passes the test
