Fixing/optimizing bcm_qspi_bspi_read() performance introduced two
changes:
1) It added a loop to read all requested data using multiple BSPI ops.
2) It bumped max size of a single BSPI block request from 256 to 512 B.
The later change resulted in occasional BSPI timeouts causing a
regression.
For some unknown reason hardware doesn't always handle reads as expected
when using 512 B chunks. In such cases it may happen that BSPI returns
amount of requested bytes without the last 1-3 ones. It provides the
remaining bytes later but doesn't raise an interrupt until another LR
start.
Switching back to 256 B reads fixes that problem and regression.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
