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.
