spi device setup gets better error checking
This updates some error reporting paths in SPI device setup:
- Move validation logic for SPI chipselects to spi_new_device(),
which is where it should always have been.
- In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't
be created. This is LOTS better than a silent failure; though
eventually, the calling convention should probably change to
use the <linux/err.h> conventions.
- Includes one previously-missing check: SPI masters must always
have at least one chipselect, even for dedicated busses which
always keep it selected!
It also adds a FIXME (IDR for dynamic ID allocation) so the issue doesn't live
purely in my mailbox.
