But there is not a single SPI device on the Sequoia board, and if you
attach one, you have to write driver code for it that implements the
chip select handling and the specific device protocol. We would have
a driver included, without any "users" (code that actually calls
these functions).
In other words, this driver is a prerequisite for other SPI device
drivers that might follow later, but as is, it's just a waste of
memory.
It would just waste memory to enable it.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
