We really should validate them in the core but really they're intended
for client drivers (like spi-mem kind of is) to allow them to adapt the
sizes of requests they're generating so the core never sees anything
that's too big.  For the transfers we have a spi_split_transfers_maxsize()
helper if anything wants to use it.  Fortunately there's not that many
controllers with low enough limits to worry about so actual usage hasn't
been that high.
