GPIO 7 reset pin busy - Raspberry Pi 3

Hey there, I found a solution for my problem.

I had to download this precompiled file (firmware/spi0-2cs.dtbo at master · raspberrypi/firmware · GitHub) and put it into my SD card on folder /boot/overlays .

Then I edited the file /boot/config.txt (only the last line). The last line must be like

dtoverlay=spi0-2cs,cs1_pin=<another free pin different from 7>

In my case I used pin 31 for Raspberry Pi 3 (GPIO6) which is unused and it worked.
