should be modified to use the normal SPI interfaces to implement
an spi target driver, possibly a combined host/target driver.
Reworking this should be fairly straightforward because the interfaces
to the SPI core are well documented.
It is possible that the hardware can only be used to provide espi
device emulation. From what I could see in the code, there is
not much special in there, but I'm not that familiar with SPI
Patches 4, 5 and 6 in consequently would need to be reworked so
these can implement the TAFS spec independent of the SPI controller,
and can be shared e.g. with other OpenBMC targets using the same
module and the same user interface. None of this should be aspeed
specific.
There is a good chance that both the user interface and the placing
of the code will need a more debate, but I would suggest first trying
to move everything over to use the SPI subsystem but leave other
parts untouched for the moment.

I think this is just a similarly named device: Freescale/NXP's eSPI
device driver is unrelated to the Intel eSPI spec but rather implements
a normal SPI driver the same way that eDMA and eSDHC are Freescale's
implementation of dmaengine and SDHCI drivers.
