[PATCH] mtd: devices: m25p80: Make the buffer passed in op is DMA-able

[Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

As documented in spi-mem.h, spi_mem_op->data.buf.{in,out} must be
DMA-able, and commit 4120f8d158ef ("mtd: spi-nor: Use the spi_mem_xx()
API") failed to follow this rule as buffers passed to
->{read,write}_reg() are usually placed on the stack.

Fix that by allocating a scratch buffer and copying the data in there
before passing it to the spi-mem layer.

Fixes: 4120f8d158ef ("mtd: spi-nor: Use the spi_mem_xx() API")

Note that the ->{read,write}() path is still buggy since nothing
guarantees that buffers passed by the MTD layer to the SPI NOR layer
are DMA-able, but this is a long-standing issue which we'll have to
address at the spi-nor level (this layer can choose the bounce buffer
size based on nor->page_size).
