Commit 6935224da248 ("spi: bcm2835: enable support of 3-wire mode") added 3-wire support to the BCM2835 SPI driver by setting the REN bit (Read Enable) in the CS register when receiving data. The REN bit puts the transmitter in high-impedance state. The driver recognizes that data is to be received by checking whether the rx_buf of a transfer is non-NULL.

Commit 3ecd37edaa2a ("spi: bcm2835: enable dma modes for transfers meeting certain conditions") subsequently broke 3-wire support because it set the SPI_MASTER_MUST_RX flag which causes spi_map_msg() to replace rx_buf with a dummy buffer if it is NULL. As a result, rx_buf is *always* non-NULL if DMA is enabled.

Reinstate 3-wire support by not only checking whether rx_buf is non-NULL, but also checking that it is not the dummy buffer.
