spi: bcm63xx-hsspi: Add polling mode support

Browse source

Polling mode provides better throughput in general by avoiding the
interrupt overhead as the maximum data size one interrupt can handle is
only 512 bytes. So switch to polling mode as the default mode but add
a driver sysfs option wait_mode to allow user manually changing the mode
at run time between interrupt and polling. Also add driver banner
message when the driver is loaded successfully.

When test on a Broadcom BCM47622(ARM A7 dual core) reference board with
WINBOND W25N01GV SPI NAND chip at 100MHz SPI clock using the MTD speed
test suite, it shows about 15% improvement on the write and 30% on
the read:
