This reverts commit 04e6bb0d6bb127bac929fb35edd2dd01613c9520.

Please submit patches using subject lines reflecting the style for the
subsystem, this makes it easier for people to identify relevant patches.
Look at what existing commits in the area you're changing are doing and
make sure your subject lines visually resemble what they're doing.
There's no need to resubmit to fix this alone.

This revert the commit 'spi: modify set_cs_timing parameter'
and its following commit
'spi: mediatek: fix build warnning in set cs timing'.

Which is not what the commit message nor the paste of the full hash
claimed :/

What is the paste of the full hash?
Since the second commit is only a warning fixes I thought it is cumbersome to
send two separate reverting patches. Should I?

Those commits cause regression on mt8173 elm device. The EC either is not
able to register or it sends numerous amount of errors:

cros-ec-i2c-tunnel 1100a000.spi:ec@0:i2c-tunnel0: Error transferring EC i2c message -71
cros-ec-spi spi0.0: EC failed to respond in time.

Do we have any analysis as to why?  Do these devices use timing
parameters in some way for example, or do the values written out to the
device change in some way?

You've provided no analysis here so it's hard to tell if this is just
some random change that happens to change code generation slighly or if
there's some actual reason why this might fix something.  I'll note that
as far as I can see there are no users of this API upstream so I'm
guessing that you've got some out of tree consumer driver which uses the
API, it's possible that there was some error in updating that driver to
the new interface which is causing the issue.

Actually the original commit not only change that callback 'set_cs_timing' but it also
calls 'mtk_spi_set_hw_cs_timing' directly from the function "mtk_spi_prepare_message".
So this actually influences all devices bound to this driver (in upstream)
I did some printing and it does change values that are written to registers.

Thanks,
Dafna
