The "DANGEROUS" in the SPI_INTEL_SPI_PCI and SPI_INTEL_SPI_PLATFORM
worried me somewhat. I'm guessing this is why most distros don't
compile it as a module by default. If the module isn't actually still
considered dangerous, and we can remove the warning I can of course
respin my patch on top of that instead.

Richard.
