Mainline patch simply changes return value, but code is different in

that a problem?
Actually no.) In that old 4.19 context it's even better to return straight away
no matter what value is returned by the dma_transfer() callback.
This patch changes the return dma_transfer return value from 0 to 1,
however it was only done in spi-dw-mid.c func mid_spi_dma_transfer().
There is an identical function in spi-dw-mmio.c that needs the same
treatment, otherwise access to the SPI device becomes erratic and even
causes kernel to hang. Guess how I found this ;-)
So the following patch is needed as well, at least in 4.9 and 4.19, I
did not check/test other versions. Mainline does not need this, since
the code seems to have been refactored to avoid the duplication.
Could you add your signed-off-by tag please? :)
