drm/tinydrm: Move tinydrm_spi_transfer()
This is only used by mipi-dbi drivers so move it there. The reason this isn't moved to the SPI subsystem is that it will in a later patch pass a dummy rx buffer for SPI controllers that need this. Low memory boards (64MB) can run into a problem allocating such a "large" contiguous buffer on every transfer after a long up time. This leaves a very specific use case, so we'll keep the function here. mipi-dbi will first go through a refactoring though, before this will be done. Remove SPI todo entry now that we're done with the tinydrm.ko SPI code. v2: Drop moving the mipi_dbi_spi_init() declaration (Sam) Cc: David Lechner <david@lechnology.com> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Acked-by: : David Lechner <david@lechnology.com> Signed-off-by: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@tronnes.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190719155916.62465-8-noralf@tronnes.org

Tinydrm is the helper driver for really simple fb drivers. The goal is to make
those drivers as simple as possible, so lots of room for refactoring:
-- spi helpers, probably best put into spi core/helper code. Thierry said
- the spi maintainer is fast&reactive, so shouldn't be a big issue.
-
- extract the mipi-dbi helper (well, the non-tinydrm specific parts at
least) into a separate helper, like we have for mipi-dsi already. Or follow
one of the ideas for having a shared dsi/dbi helper, abstracting away the
