Some SPI controllers can transfer only small piece of data at a time.
Since SPI core gained a function to get the maximum transfer length use
it.

  Tested on sunxi spi with DMA enabled and disabled. Makes a visible speed
difference and display works in either case.

(Ugh, this code of mine looks worse each time I'm confronted with it.)

You have even taken care of the special txbuflen == -1 value I see,
so I guess this is as good as it gets without any major refactoring, so:

Acked-by: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@xxxxxxxxxxx>

And there's no point in doing any refactoring since I'm working on a DRM
successor for fbtft. I have been working on it since the fbdev maintainer
issued the "No more new fbdev drivers, please" call in September and now
it has reached a tipping point where I can say that I will keep working
on it until it's done.

Thanks,
Noralf.
