Looking at this I can't help but think that spi_flash_read() ought to have the stub in rather than the caller. But given that we're pretty much only ever expecting one user I'm not 100% sure it actually matters.quoted
Well, my initial patch set passed long list of arguments to spi_flash_read(), but Brian suggested to use struct[1] in order to avoid unnecessary churn when things need changed in the API.I don't see what that has to do with my point?
AFAIU, your previous comment was to move initialization of spi_flash_read_message struct to spi_flash_read(). This would mean sending long list of arguments to spi_flash_read() which needs to be updated whenever an argument needs to be added/deleted (in future). Instead passing around a struct would be much easier in case of adding/removing parameters.
