44 Hardware limitations related to chip selects:
45 - Native chip selects are always deasserted in
46 between transfers that are part of the same
47 message. Use cs-gpios to work around this.
48 - All slaves using native chip selects must use the
49 same spi-cs-high configuration. Use cs-gpios to
50 work around this.
51 - When using GPIO chip selects, at least one native
52 chip select must be left unused, as it will be
53 driven anyway.
