I've heard that the SPI suport is in testing with linaro folks already.
Anyway, here is a step-by-step trial with the tiny patch attatched.
I'm using uefi with the recent edk2 that enables SPI0:

    Merge pull request #51 from hzhuang1/unreset_spi
    
    HiKeyPkg: unreset SPI0
 
which is on hikey branch of https://github.com/96boards/edk2.git.
 
[On host:]
git clone https://github.com/96boards/linux.git
cd linux
git checkout hikey
git branch working-hikey
cat $SOMEWHERE/hikey-spi.patch | patch -p1
wget http://builds.96boards.org/snapshots/hikey/community/hikey/latest/kernel.config
cp kernel.conf .config
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig
#Check spidev support
# Device Drivers->SPI support->[*] User mode SPI device driver support	
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- Image modules dtbs
#Install it
 
#Get latest spidev test, for example
# https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/spi/spidev_test.c
#and send it to the target.
[On target with the new kernel:]
[Confirm that there is f7106000.spi under /sys/devices/smb]
[Compile spidev_test.c]
$gcc -O2 -o spidev_test spidev_test.c
 
[Target root:]
[Loop test where connecting SDO to SDI on HiKey]
