Subject: [PATCH v1] Make spi_ppc4xx.c tolerate 0 bits-per-word and 0 speed_hz

From: "Steven A. Falco" <[email-masked]>

If a SPI transfer is set up, but does not explicitly set bits-per-word
and speed_hz, then the transaction fails, because spi_ppc4xx_setupxfer
rejects it.

This patch modifies the logic to chose the struct spi_transfer parameters
only if they are non-zero.  Otherwise, the struct spi_device parameters
are used.

Additionally, since there is no OF binding for bits-per-word, we have to
tolerate the case where both t->bits_per_word and spi->bits_per_word are
zero.
---
This was brought to light by a pending patch to spi_bitbang, which results
in more calls to spi_ppc4xx_setupxfer.
