For this + discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in + SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers + in slave mode. + + The SPI master node requires the following properties: + - #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select + address on the SPI bus. + - #size-cells - should be zero. + - compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names + recommended practice. + No other properties are required in the SPI bus node.
