Which boards are that? Are you referring to non-DT i.MX boards?
If so, I have sent a patch removing all non-DT i.MX boards.

Initial i.MX chips with this SPI IP had issues in using chip-select in native mode and GPIO chip-select has been used since them.
Do we have i.MX dts that make use of native chip select?
