spi: bcm2835aux: fix corruptions for longer spi transfers
On long running tests with a mcp2517fd can controller it showed that on rare occations the data read shows corruptions for longer spi transfers. Example of a 22 byte transfer: expected (as captured on logic analyzer): FF FF 78 00 00 00 08 06 00 00 91 20 77 56 84 85 86 87 88 89 8a 8b read by the driver: FF FF 78 00 00 00 08 06 00 00 91 20 77 56 84 88 89 8a 00 00 8b 9b To fix this use BCM2835_AUX_SPI_STAT_RX_LVL to determine when we may read data from the fifo reliably without any corruption. Surprisingly the only values ever empirically read in BCM2835_AUX_SPI_STAT_RX_LVL are 0x00, 0x10, 0x20 and 0x30. So whenever the mask is not 0 we can read from the fifo in a safe manner. The patch has now been tested intensively and we are no longer able to reproduce the "RX" issue any longer. Fixes: 1ea29b39 ("spi: bcm2835aux: add bcm2835 auxiliary spi device...")
