spi: Add driver_override SPI device attribute 
This attribute works the same was as the identically named attribute
for PCI, AMBA, and platform devices.  For reference, see:

commit 3cf3857134 ("ARM: 8256/1: driver coamba: add device binding
path 'driver_override'")
commit 3d713e0e38 ("driver core: platform: add device binding path
'driver_override'")
commit 782a985d7a ("PCI: Introduce new device binding path using
pci_dev.driver_override")

If the name of a driver is written to this attribute, then the device
will bind to the named driver and only the named driver.

The device will bind to the driver even if the driver does not list the
device in its id table.  This behavior is different than the driver's
bind attribute, which only allows binding to devices that are listed as
supported by the driver.

It can be used to bind a generic driver, like spidev, to a device.

README 

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
