There are plenty of delays that have been introduced in SPI core. Most of them are in micro-seconds, some need to be in nano-seconds, and some in clock-cycles. For some of these delays (related to transfers & CS timing) it may make sense to have a `spi_delay` struct that abstracts these a bit. The important element of these delays [for unification] seems to be the `unit` of the delay. It looks like micro-seconds is good enough for most people, but every-once in a while, some delays seem to require other units of measurement. This change adds the `spi_delay` struct & a `spi_delay_exec()` function that processes a `spi_delay` object/struct to execute the delay. It's a copy of the `cs_change_delay` mechanism, but without the default for 10 uS. The clock-cycle delay unit is a bit special, as it needs to be bound to an `spi_transfer` object to execute.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
