[PATCH v2 2/2] spi: axi-spi-engine: move msg finalization out of irq handler

[David Lechner <dlechner@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As a general principal, it is best to do as little as possible in an
interrupt handler. This patch reworks the AXI SPI Engine driver to move
timer_delete_sync() and spi_finalize_current_message() out of the
interrupt handler. Instead, spi_finalize_current_message() is moved to
the transfer_one_message function (similar to nearly all other SPI
controllers). A completion is now used to wait for the sync interrupt
that indicates that the message is complete. The watchdog timer is no
longer needed since we can use the wait_for_completion_timeout()
function to wait for the message to complete with the same effect.

As a bonus, these changes also improve throughput of the SPI controller.
For example, this was tested on a ZynqMP with a 80MHz SCLK reading 4
byte samples from an ADC. The max measured throughput increased from
26k to 28k samples per second.
