David Brownell 082c8cb4e5 spi device setup gets better error checking
This updates some error reporting paths in SPI device setup:

 - Move validation logic for SPI chipselects to spi_new_device(),
   which is where it should always have been.

 - In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't
   be created.  This is LOTS better than a silent failure; though
   eventually, the calling convention should probably change to
   use the <linux/err.h> conventions.

 - Includes one previously-missing check:  SPI masters must always
   have at least one chipselect, even for dedicated busses which
   always keep it selected!

It also adds a FIXME (IDR for dynamic ID allocation) so the issue doesn't live
purely in my mailbox.
