With no word size given in the users platform data, a generic spi host controller driver will assume a default word size of eight bit. This causes transmission to be performed bytewise, which will fail on little endian machines for sure. Failure on big endian depends on usage of slave select to mark word boundaries. Anyway, ad7877 is specified to work with 16 bit per word, so unconditionally set the word size accordingly.
