There weren't any major revisions or this time around and there weren't
any more long discussions on higher level design, so I've dropped the
RFC label and started polishing things up a bit more. So hopefully we
are getting close to a final version.

Changes in v5:
- Dropped pwm patch. A variant of this patch has been picked up in the
pwm tree.
- Addressed review comments (see details in individual patches).
- Added some polish, like MAINTAINERS entries and updating ADC docs.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241023-dlech-mainline-spi-engine-offload-2-v4-0-f8125b99f5a1@baylibre.com
Changes in v4:
- Dropped #spi-offload-cells and spi-offload properties from DT bindings.
- Made an attempt at a more generic trigger interface instead of using
clk framework. This also includes a new driver for a generic PWM
trigger.
- Addressed IIO review comments.
- Added new patches for iio/adc/ad4695 as 2nd user of SPI offload.
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240722-dlech-mainline-spi-engine-offload-2-v3-0-7420e45df69b@baylibre.com
Changes in v3:
- Reworked DT bindings to have things physically connected to the SPI
controller be properties of the SPI controller and use more
conventional provider/consumer properties.
- Added more SPI APIs for peripheral drivers to use to get auxillary
offload resources, like triggers.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240510-dlech-mainline-spi-engine-offload-2-v2-0-8707a870c435@baylibre.com
Individual patches have more details on these changes and earlier revisions too.

As a recap, here is the background and end goal of this series:
The AXI SPI Engine is a SPI controller that has the ability to record a
series of SPI transactions and then play them back using a hardware
trigger. This allows operations to be performed, repeating many times,
without any CPU intervention. This is needed for achieving high data
rates (millions of samples per second) from ADCs and DACs that are
connected via a SPI bus.
The offload hardware interface consists of a trigger input and a data
output for the RX data. These are connected to other hardware external
to the SPI controller.
To record one or more transactions, commands and TX data are written
to memories in the controller (RX buffer is not used since RX data gets
streamed to an external sink). This sequence of transactions can then be
played back when the trigger input is asserted.
This series includes core SPI support along with the first SPI
controller (AXI SPI Engine) and SPI peripheral (AD7944 ADC) that use
them. This enables capturing analog data at 2 million samples per
second.
The hardware setup looks like this:
