atmel_spi: reload RCR before TCR
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We have a wifi module connected to the spi bus and got sometimes FIFO
overrun errors on the spi bus.

After some investigation i found that the driver loads the TCR (transmit
count) register before the RCR (receive count).  When the transfer list is
not empty the atmel_spi_next_message is called while tx and rx are enabled.
 As soon as the TCR is loaded, hardware starts transfer and causes a rx
fifo overrun because the RCR is not loaded yet.

Load the RCR before the TCR.  After this patch the fifo overrun disapears
at out setup.
