Its like, you pass txbuf and rxbuf from the spi core to your controller
driver. So, if your txbuf is not null then configure the controller
cmd register with WRITE_SINGLE and if rxbuf is not null then
configure the controller cmd register with READ_QUAD.

Something like this,
                 if (txbuf) {
                         dra7xxx_writel_data(qspi, *txbuf++,
                                 QSPI_SPI_DATA_REG, wlen);
                         dra7xxx_writel(qspi, qspi->dc, QSPI_SPI_DC_REG);
                         dra7xxx_writel(qspi, qspi->cmd | QSPI_WR_SNGL,
                                         QSPI_SPI_CMD_REG);
                         wait_for_completion(&qspi->word_complete);
                 }
                 if (rxbuf) {
                         printk("rx cmd %08x dc %08x\n",
                                 qspi->cmd | QSPI_RD_QUAD, qspi->dc);
                         dra7xxx_writel(qspi, INT_EN, 
QSPI_INTR_ENABLE_SET_REG);
                         dra7xxx_writel(qspi, qspi->dc, QSPI_SPI_DC_REG);
                     if (!quad_mode)
                             dra7xxx_writel(qspi, qspi->cmd | QSPI_RD_SNGL,
                                             QSPI_SPI_CMD_REG);
                     else
                             dra7xxx_writel(qspi, qspi->cmd | QSPI_RD_QUAD,
                                             QSPI_SPI_CMD_REG);
                  .......
                 }
