+Subject: [PATCH] spi: Only idle the message pump in the worker kthread
+
+In order to avoid the situation where the kthread is waiting for another
+context to make the hardware idle let the message pump know if it's being
+called from the worker thread context and if it isn't then defer to the
+worker thread instead of idling the hardware immediately. This will ensure
+that if this situation happens we block rather than busy waiting.
