spi: Add function to allocate a new SPI slave
At present it is difficult to extend the SPI structure since all drivers allocate it themselves, and few of them zero all fields. Add a new function spi_alloc_slave() which can be used by SPI drivers to perform this allocation, and thus ensure that all drivers can better cope with SPI structure changes.
