me know if you find anything.

I ran across an existing platform that used an mpc8270.  During boot up
it displayed:
[   17.828513] SPIDriver: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
[   17.865052] CPM SPI Driver: $Revision: 1.0 $ wd@denx.de

I have been all over denx and have not been able to find it.  This
particular system used the SPI for a DSP chip. 
Probably somebody copied and modified a  driver  they  found  in  our
trees. We release all such code under GPL...

You can find SPI driver code in our old linuxppc_2_4_devel tree,  but
this  does  not  include  support  for  MPC82xx; and then there is an
ancient (5+ years) 82xx SPI driver in our  linux-2.4  (2.4.4)  kernel
tree.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
