mainlining shenanigans
33726eff3d
Having any data left in the Rx FIFO after the DMA engine claimed it has
finished all DMA transactions is an abnormal situation, since the DW SPI
controller driver expects to have all the data being fetched and placed
into the SPI Rx buffer at that moment. In case if that has happened we
hopefully assume that the DMA engine may still be doing the data fetching,
thus we give it sometime to finish. If after a short period of time the
data is still left in the Rx FIFO, the driver will give up waiting and
return an error indicating that the SPI controller/DMA engine must have
hung up or failed at some point of doing their duties.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
