First, a small bug-fix for spi_bitbang: it must always call the
setup_transfer function via the overridable pointer, not assume
that its spi_bitbang_setup_transfer is sufficient. Otherwise,
if all options in the transfers are default (0), the overrided
function will never be called. Granted, the function replacing
it must call spi_bitbang_setup_transfer, but it might also have
other important things to do, even if the second argument (the
spi_transfer) is NULL. Tested together with the other patches
on the spi_crisv32_sser and spi_crisv32_gpio drivers (not yet in
the kernel, will IIUC be submitted as part of the usual
arch-maintainer-pushes).
