spi-altera driver is broken and causes a kernel panic due to a NULL pointer dereference during first SPI transaction. The setup_transfer() bitbang callback is mandatory when the txrx_bufs() callback is present. It was therefore an error to remove it in commit 30af9b558a56. This patch simply adds back an empty implementation of the callback.
