Tx-only DMA transfers are working perfectly fine since in this case the code just ignores the Rx FIFO overflow interrupts. But it turns out the SPI Rx-only transfers are broken since nothing pushing any data to the shift registers, so the Rx FIFO is left empty and the SPI core subsystems just returns a timeout error. Since DW DMAC driver doesn't support something like cyclic write operations of a single byte to a device register, the only way to support the Rx-only SPI transfers is to fake it by using a dummy Tx-buffer. This is what we intend to fix in this commit by setting the SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_TX flag for DMA-capable platform.

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.
