A chip that I am working on acts as an SPI multiplexer for downstream radios,
this patch adds basic support for adding an SPI mux with DT.
The mux API is modeled on the I2C mux way of doing things with the addition of
being able to override the transfer_one_message. This is due to my mux exposing
the downstream radios through its regmap and not straight on the bus.
This is a first proof of concept and I'm expecting a few revisions, which is
why there is no documentation yet.
Thanks!

Like I2C busses SPI devices can also sit behind multiplexers.
This patch adds is based off the I2C implementation and allows
description in the devicetree.

Please don't send cover letters for single patches, if there is anything
that needs saying put it in the changelog of the patch or after the ---
if it's administrative stuff. This reduces mail volume and ensures that
any important information is recorded in the changelog rather than being
lost.

Why is this not sitting at either the chip select level or just having
the individual devices be SPI controllers?

This all looks pretty much like the normal set of controller operations
but perhaps I'm missing something - the only extra thing I'm seeing is
an ability to have something sitting in front of the chip select lines
which seems like it'd be more effective if implemented directly at that
level. Things that have their own transfer function would be better off
just being first order SPI controllers I think so that they get access
to everything the framework offers and can correctly advertise
capabilities and so on.

In the situation I have, the end devices are not attached to an SPI bus
that attaches to the host so I dont think I could just override the hosts
chip select.
This module is a set of helpers for my 'mux' SPI device to register itself
as a series of SPI controllers, one for each bus leaf. It could also have
been just one SPI controller using its own chip select to switch busses,
but I used the design patern from I2C.

Appologies, will be included in the next itteration.
Essentially it's presented like this in DT, where my-mux is a device using
the controller registration helpers in this module;
my-mux: muxdevice@0 {
spi@0 {
muxed-devices@0 {
.....
};
};
spi@1 {
.......
};
};

This runs as a very simple fake SPI controller per bus that the mux is
controlling. Having this custom transfer message allowed me to pop
in the way my device exposes the downstream devices, through its
regmap.
However if a mux device didn't register a custom transfer with this module
then it will select the downstream bus then pass the message back to the
host SPI for transfer.

Which like I say is a problem - if your device (which just sounds like a
SPI controller) has different capabilities and constraints to the parent
then client drivers won't see that.

Ahh yes I see what you mean, agreed. I have changed my device to be a full
controller.
Thanks for the review.
