spi: add support for device table matching

Browse source 
With this patch spi drivers can use standard spi_driver.id_table and
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices.  Just like
we do with I2C drivers.

This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices
but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips
probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is
overkill.

This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since
with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.
