spi_gpio driver

Generalize the old at91rm9200 "bootstrap" bitbanging SPI master driver as
"spi_gpio", so it works with arbitrary GPIOs and can be configured through
platform_data.  Such SPI masters support:

 - any number of bus instances (bus_num is the platform_device.id)
 - any number of chipselects (one GPIO per spi_device)
 - all four SPI_MODE values, and SPI_CS_HIGH
 - i/o word sizes from 1 to 32 bits;
 - devices configured as with any other spi_master controller

When configured using platform_data, this provides relatively low clock
rates.  On platforms that support inlined GPIO calls, significantly
improved transfer speeds are also possible with a semi-custom driver.
(It's still painful when accessing flash memory, but less so.)

Sanity checked by using this version to replace both native controllers on
a board with six different SPI slaves, relying on three different
SPI_MODE_* values and both SPI_CS_HIGH settings for correct operation.

+          This simple GPIO bitbanging SPI master uses the arch-neutral GPIO
+          interface to manage MOSI, MISO, SCK, and chipselect signals.  SPI
+          slaves connected to a bus using this driver are configured as usual,
+          except that the spi_board_info.controller_data holds the GPIO number
+          for the chipselect used by this controller driver.
+
+          Note that this driver often won't achieve even 1 Mbit/sec speeds,
+          making it unusually slow for SPI.  If your platform can inline
