The SPI tx and rx buffers are both supposed to be scan_bytes amount of bytes large and a common allocation is used to allocate both buffers. This puts the beginning of the tx buffer scan_bytes bytes after the rx buffer. The initialization of the tx buffer pointer is done adding scan_bytes to the beginning of the rx buffer, but since the rx buffer is of type __be16 this will actually add two times as much and the tx buffer ends up pointing after the allocated buffer. Fix this by using scan_count, which is scan_bytes / 2, instead of scan_bytes when initializing the tx buffer pointer.
