From ce0e4cf60033eb7e15266b329183f945f2a82c61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Elwell Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2019 10:28:44 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] spidev: Completely disable the DT warning The upstream SPI and DT maintainers are completely opposed to declaring in Device Tree that an SPI CS line is to be managed by the spidev driver, even though the facility is useful on a hobbyist device like a Raspberry Pi where arbitrary devices can be attached, and the alternative to DT declaration (spi_board_info) has been almost entirely rendered obsolete by DT. Continue to override their objections by disabling the warning.
