+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] spi: ath79: set number of chipselect lines
+
+All chipsets from AR7100 up to QCA9563 have three dedicated chipselect
+lines for the integrated SPI controller. Remove the number of
+chipselects from the platform data, as there is no need to manually set
+this to a different value.
