Applied; but I have a comments on your commit text.

SHA1 id's are great for looking up commits, but they don't help at all
for casual readers on the mailing list or doing web searches.  Please
always include the commit title when referencing an earlier commit.  I
had to edit the commit text.  Here is what I changed it to:

    spi/mpc83xx: fix NULL pdata dereference bug
    
    Commit 178db7d3, "spi: Fix device unregistration when unregistering
    the bus master", changed device initialization to be children of the
    bus master, not children of the bus masters parent device. The pdata
    pointer used in fsl_spi_chipselect must updated to reflect the changed
    initialization.
