spi: bcm2835: Cache CS register value for ->prepare_message()
The BCM2835 SPI driver needs to set up the clock polarity in its ->prepare_message() hook before spi_transfer_one_message() asserts chip select to avoid a gratuitous clock signal edge (cf. commit acace73d ("spi: bcm2835: set up spi-mode before asserting cs-gpio")). Precalculate the CS register value (which selects the clock polarity) once in ->setup() and use that cached value in ->prepare_message() and ->transfer_one(). This avoids one MMIO read per message and one per transfer, yielding a small latency improvement. Additionally, a forthcoming commit will use the precalculated value to derive the register value for clearing the RX FIFO, which will eliminate the need for an RX dummy buffer when performing TX-only DMA transfers.
