This should at most be behind a flag. If the device is being used by
other process/drivers, it's a problem with that specific user/distro:
don't penalize everybody else. Besides, changing the mode is not atomic
and nothing guarantees the other side doesn't get scheduled and change
it back before we get to run.
Do not create one thread per chardev (i.e. bus + kernel's chip select).
Since the shared resources are actually the bus controller and the bus
lines, it makes sense to have 1 thread per bus, otherwise it will just
get locked again on the mutex in the kernel side.

The open coded version has the same problem fixed by Thread abstraction:
the order of the calls matters and it's easy to call in the wrong order.
Here pthread_attr_setschedparam() and pthread_attr_setschedpolicy()
should be swapped, like in 62c2f737d5 (AP_HAL_Linux: fix setting RT priorities.)
Minlure is a port of ArduPilot to Minnow Board connected to daughter
board. Very few of those were produced and nobody is flying with it.
It served its purpose and all the the improvements to ArduPilot remain
regardless of it not being supported anymore. Now it's just adding
maintenance work with no clear benefit, so pull the plug.
By the time we create the storage we hadn't still initialized the
buffer. Remove the writes during storage creation since ftruncate() will
take care of the file size aspect and MAX storage write chunk is taken
care by Linux according to the media/fs that is there.
