ack. Will treat default case as error.

ack. Will remove the debug logic.

Will remove.

Make sense. Will use if-else.

Ack. There is no particular need to disable h/w per message.
Will instead implement prepare/unprepare_transfer_hardware() and add there.

ack.

Normally setup() and cleanup() are called in-pair by spi-client driver.
In these cases the above condition won't met and will not be a problem.

It is required for MMC-over-SPI support. Linux MMC_SPI driver sometimes
(depending on some logic) want chip-select to be kept enabled (using
transfer.cs_change) even at the end of SPI message so that following
message(s) can also be made part of the running MMC transaction.
In this case if there is any error (and in some other cases as well)
MMC_SPI will have to terminate on-going MMC transactions and it is
done by calling setup(). It is assumed that setup() will always leave
the chip-select deactivated.

Reference from drivers/mmc/host/mmc_spi.c:
-------------------
/*
* MMC-over-SPI protocol glue, used by the MMC stack interface
*/

static inline int mmc_cs_off(struct mmc_spi_host *host)
{
/* chipselect will always be inactive after setup() */
return spi_setup(host->spi);
}
----------------

Best thing I can add is wait for unprepare_message() before calling
cleanup().

If you could suggest better alternative that will be great.
