Thor Thayer a6a66f80c8 mtd: spi-nor: Fix Cadence QSPI page fault kernel panic
The current Cadence QSPI driver caused a kernel panic sporadically
when writing to QSPI. The problem was caused by writing more bytes
than needed because the QSPI operated on 4 bytes at a time.

On a page boundary limit the number of bytes copied from the tx buffer
to remain within the page.

This patch uses a temporary buffer to hold the 4 bytes to write and then
copies only the bytes required from the tx buffer.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
