[PATCH] spi: Fix race condition in stop_queue()

There's a race condition in stop_queue() in some drivers -
if drv_data->queue is empty, but drv_data->busy is still set
(or opposite situation) stop_queue will return -EBUSY.
So fix loop condition to check that both drv_data->queue is empty
and drv_data->busy is not set.

This patch affects following drivers:
pxa2xx_spi
spi_bfin5xx
amba-pl022
dw_spi
