The Qualcomm QSPI driver appears to require that any reads using DMA are a mutliple of 4 bytes. If this isn't true then the controller will clobber any extra bytes in memory following the last word. Let's detect this and falback to PIO. This fixes problems reported by slub_debug=FZPUA, which would complain about "kmalloc Redzone overwritten". One such instance said: 0xffffff80c29d541a-0xffffff80c29d541b @offset=21530. First byte 0x0 instead of 0xcc Allocated in mtd_kmalloc_up_to+0x98/0xac age=36 cpu=3 pid=6658 Tracing through what was happening I saw that, while we often did DMA tranfers of 0x1000 bytes, sometimes we'd end up doing ones of 0x41a bytes. Those 0x41a byte transfers were the problem. NOTE: a future change will enable the SPI "mem ops" to help avoid this case, but it still seems good to add the extra check in the transfer.
