I'm not sure what's being referred to as being lost in the second commit
TBH. The first commit is simple code motion rather than a correctness
thing, and more related to the handling of GPIO controlled chip selects
according to the description (which people should be using with that
controller anyway where possible IIRC, the native chip select has too
many assumptions about what it's doing). I don't know that I ever
actually used a system that used the native chip select as the actual
chip select. Perhaps some quirk was introduced where the chip select
signal does something?

The commit is also lacking a description of what the issues that are
being fixed are.
