Subject: spi: imx: Fix small DMA transfers

From: Sascha Hauer <[email protected]>

commit f6ee9b582d2db652497b73c1f117591dfb6d3a90 upstream.

DMA transfers must be greater than the watermark level size. spi_imx->rx_wml and spi_imx->tx_wml contain the watermark level in 32bit words whereas struct spi_transfer contains the transfer len in bytes. Fix the check if DMA is possible for a transfer accordingly. This fixes transfers with sizes between 33 and 128 bytes for which previously was claimed that DMA is possible.
