Yes, this was the problem. Since the SPI driver now depends on
CONFIG_TI_EDMA for basic operation may be select CONFIG_TI_EDMA in
Kconfig if SPI is enabled? That should do until the fallback to PIO is
implemented.

With that fixed, I tested SPI on OMAP-L138 EVM and it works great.
Tested a JFFS2 mount as well as some raw chardev read/write tests.

Thanks,
