Subject: spi: dw: Fix detecting FIFO depth

From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d297933cc7fcfbaaf2d37570baac73287bf0357d upstream.

Current code tries to find the highest valid fifo depth by checking the value
it wrote to DW_SPI_TXFLTR. There are a few problems in current code:
1) There is an off-by-one in dws->fifo_len setting because it assumes the latest
   register write fails so the latest valid value should be fifo - 1.
2) We know the depth could be from 2 to 256 from HW spec, so it is not necessary
   to test fifo == 257. In the case fifo is 257, it means the latest valid
   setting is fifo = 256. So after the for loop iteration, we should check
   fifo == 2 case instead of fifo == 257 if detecting the FIFO depth fails.
This patch fixes above issues.
