Would you mind doing the following tests looping the SPI interface MISO/MOSI?

```
cd /tmp

dd if=/dev/urandom of=4k-spi-test-data.bin bs=1 count=4k
spidev_test -D "$device" -s 4000000 -i 4k-spi-test-data.bin -o 4k-spi-test-result.bin

dd if=/dev/urandom of=16bytes-spi-test-data.bin bs=1 count=16
spidev_test -D "$device" -s 16000 -i 16bytes-spi-test-data.bin -o 16bytes-spi-test-result.bin
```

with "$device" being your actual spidev device?

Those tests are passing on 6.7.0-rc2 for me.
