spi: Fixes for v6.2
A couple of hopefully final fixes for spi, one driver specific fix for
an issue with very large transfers and a fix for an issue with the
locking fixes in spidev merged earlier this release cycle which was
missed.
spi: spidev: fix a recursive locking error
When calling spidev_message() from the one of the ioctl() callbacks, the
spi_lock is already taken. When we then end up calling spidev_sync(), we
get the following splat:

Fix it by introducing an unlocked variant of spidev_sync() and calling it
from spidev_message() while other users who don't check the spidev->spi's
existence keep on using the locking flavor.
