A few trivial things inline but looks good to me in general.

I thought about suggesting splitting this into an initial patch that just does
the bits without the controller callbacks. Maybe it would work better that way
with that introduced after the validate and splitting of transfers (so most
of patches 1 and 2) as a patch 3 prior to the stm32 additions?

Seems misbalanced that this doesn't take a pre_optimized flag in but
__spi_optimize does. I'd move handling that to outside the call in both cases.

I'm not sure a catch all like that makes sense. Not sufficient to call
the finer grained spi_maybe_unoptimize_message()  ?
