Re: [virtio-dev] Re: [RFC PATCH v2 3/3] SPI: Add virtio SPI driver (V10 draft specification).

Hello Haixu,

Thanks. This was a hard one. I knew that I did the delay settingsmost 
probably somewhat wrong but I had no idea that I did it so wrong.

Reworked, made a new function for this, currently testing. Added the 
link to the place where your E-Mail is stored

https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

as a comment to the source code and hope this will survive the reviews. 
Another option would be to add the diagram + the explanations below as 
quoted here as comment to the code. Whether 30+ lines of comments would 
survive the reviews I don't know.

Just to say nothing in the code making live hard for people trying to 
understand the code is something I would like to avoid.

Regards
Harald
