As you can see, I would need to configure my dts with spi-cs-high flag,
even if the hardware is actually ACTIVE_LOW. If I will go this way, I
would risk a regression as soon as this issue is fixed.

Since the spi framework is already parsing devicetree and set all needed
flags, I assume it is wrong to blindly drop all this flags in the
driver.

Yes, but I wonder if the devices can only work in mode 0 we should be
doing:

	spi->mode &= ~SPI_MODE_MASK; // to be defined as 0x03 in spi.h
	spi->mode |= SPI_MODE_0;

as we can't simply "or" mode value as is

Why not? This values are taken from device tree. If some developer
decided to add them, then driver should take it over. Even if this
values will break the functionality.

Other properties of this driver will break the functionality too of this
driver too, so why should we silently filter only set of this bits?

(well, mode 0 is kind of working, but just on accident).

Good question, will be probably a good reason to measure it.

Thanks.
