The behavior of an SPI controller data output line (SDO or MOSI or COPI
(Controller Output Peripheral Input) for disambiguation) is usually not
specified when the controller is not clocking out data on SCLK edges.
However, there do exist SPI peripherals that require specific MOSI line
state when data is not being clocked out of the controller.
Conventional SPI controllers may set the MOSI line on SCLK edges then bring
it low when no data is going out or leave the line the state of the last
transfer bit. More elaborated controllers are capable to set the MOSI idle
state according to different configurable levels and thus are more suitable
for interfacing with demanding peripherals.
Add SPI mode bits to allow peripherals to request explicit MOSI idle state
when needed.
When supporting a particular MOSI idle configuration, the data output line
state is expected to remain at the configured level when the controller is
not clocking out data. When a device that needs a specific MOSI idle state
is identified, its driver should request the MOSI idle configuration by
setting the proper SPI mode bit.

Some spi controller switch the mosi line to high, whenever they are
idle. This may not be desired in all use cases. For example neopixel
leds can get confused and flicker due to misinterpreting the idle state.
Therefore, we introduce a new spi-mode bit, with which the idle behaviour
can be overwritten on a per device basis.

This change moves all the SPI mode bits into a separate 'spi.h' header in
uAPI. This is meant to re-use these definitions inside the kernel as well
as export them to userspace (via uAPI).
The SPI mode definitions have usually been duplicated between between
'include/linux/spi/spi.h' and 'include/uapi/linux/spi/spidev.h', so
whenever adding a new entry, this would need to be put in both headers.
They've been moved from 'include/linux/spi/spi.h', since that seems a bit
more complete; the bits have descriptions and there is the SPI_MODE_X_MASK.
This change also does a conversion of these bitfields to _BITUL() macro.
