Current IRQ-based SPI transfer execution procedure doesn't work well at the final stage of the execution. If all the Tx data is sent out (written to the Tx FIFO) but there is some data left to receive, the Tx FIFO Empty IRQ will constantly happen until all of the requested inbound data is received. Though for a short period of time, but it will make the system less responsive. In order to fix that let's refactor the SPI transfer execution procedure by taking the Rx FIFO Full IRQ into account. We'll read and write SPI transfer data each time the IRQ happens as before. If all the outbound data is sent out, we'll disable the Tx FIFO Empty IRQ. If there is still some data to receive, we'll adjust the Rx FIFO Threshold level, so the next IRQ would be raised at the moment of all incoming data being available in the Rx FIFO.

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.
