Hello to everyone,
 I was trying to enable the SPI of a lite5200 board. I've seen that
 there's something related to this in
 arch/powerpc/boot/dts/lite5200b.dts

 but I'm not able to find where to enable it in menuconfig. Under
 device drivers -> Spi support there only the PSC SPI.
 Where am I wrong?

The device tree describes the hardware; even if there isn't a driver
for it.  The non-PSC SPI does not have a driver right now.

I'm actually working on a driver for it *right now*.  Are you able to
help with testing?

Cheers,
