Subject[PATCH] SPI: spi_butterfly, restore lost deltas
Date
From
[PATCH] SPI: spi_butterfly, restore lost deltas

This resolves some minor version skew glitches that accumulated for the AVR
Butterfly adapter driver, which caused among other things the existence of
a duplicate Kconfig entry. Most of it boils down to comment updates, but in
one case it removes some now-superfluous code that would be better if not
copied into other controller-level drivers.

The first cable connections will hook Linux up to one SPI bus, with the
AVR and a DataFlash chip; and to the AVR reset line. This is all you
need to reflash the firmware, and the pins are the standard Atmel "ISP"
