This changeset introduces an `spi_delay` struct/data-type and makes the
IIO ADIS driver library the first user of this.

The patchset base is Jonathan's `iio/togreg` branch, but it also applies on
Mark's `spi/for-next` branch.

The reasons for choosing `cs_change_delay`, is:
1. this change introduces delay units
2. it is not yet widely used, meaning it can still be changed 

Some delays like `delay` from `spi_transfer` would require a longer
update-time change & discussion.

Alexandru Ardelean (3):
  spi: move `cs_change_delay` backwards compat logic outside switch
  spi: introduce spi_delay struct as "value + unit" &  spi_delay_exec()
  spi: make `cs_change_delay` the first user of the `spi_delay` logic

Changelog v2 -> v3:
* squash patches 3 & 4 into a single patch; otherwise the kernel is in
  broken state between those 2 patches

Changelog v1 -> v2:
* split away from the RFC patchset, which aims to be a broader explanation
  for this changeset; parts of v1 are not 100% defined yet, and may require
  some discussion and refinement.
