This mirrors the conventions used in other SPI drivers (kirkwood,
davinci, atmel, et al) where the din/dout buffer can be NULL when the
received/transmitted data isn't important. This reduces the need for
allocating additional buffers when write-only/read-only functionality is
needed.
In the din == NULL case, the received data is simply not stored. In the
dout == NULL case, zeroes are transmitted.

Rather than each driver having its own way to allocate a SPI slave,
use the new allocation function everywhere. This will make it easier
to extend the interface without breaking drivers.
