To reach higher capacities, arrays of chips are now pretty common. Unfortunately, most of the controllers have been designed a decade ago and did not all anticipate the need for several chip-selects. The new cs-gpios property allows to workaround this limitation by adding as many GPIO chip-select as needed.
