Should that really be just PPC_83xx || QUICC_ENGINE?
Well, I thought about that. By now I'm unsure if every QE
implementation will be compatible with further ones.
How many other QE implementations exist?  Is that sort of
gratuitous breakage something Freescale makes a habit of?

So far
I've tested this driver on MPC8323 and MPC8568. If we'll see
more and more compatible QE SPI controllers, of course we
may just do || QUICC_ENGINE.

PPC_83xx || PPC_85xx
PPC_83xx || QUICC_ENGINE

Today first option saves us four bytes. ;-)
It'd be good if someone would look at the relevant docs.

I'll wait for a PPC signoff before I forward this for
merge with SPI stuff...
