there is no dependency on a specific spi bus master implementation.
just like the i2c framework, such a dependency would be against the
whole purpose of having a generic framework in the first place.
fortunately, this is one piece of the Blackfin ASoC drivers done
correctly.  in other words, they should work just fine if hooked up to
a GPIO SPI bus or a SPORT SPI bus or a Blackfin on-chip SPI bus or
......
