Code merged into master cgminer, thanks.

zefir previously mentioned that cgminer has support for MCP2210-based boards (with USB comms to a PC rather than a RasPi).  Does this merge now mean that a current-version build of cgminer will run the A1 chips direct from a PC, if the MCP2210 is included?

That would be sweet...

No, the current version runs exactly the CoinCraft Desk which is driven by a RasPi over its SPI interface. To make it working over MCP2210, one would need to wrap the SPI interface (which is abstracted over spi-context.c already) over MCP2210. Should be easy to implement, alas I currently am too busy so look at.
