At what speeds are you seeing those errors?

Does this mean that block transfer will start only if the required
bytes from block is written into buffer?

Please, could prefix this whit spi_ to be consistent with the
rest of the code.

You should not need this check here. xfer->len is multiple of controller->w_size
and you always read one word at time.

Same here.

Please, could you split this function to read and write, so we can use:

spi_qup_fifo_read() and spi_qup_fifo_write() in FIFO modes and 
spi_qup_block_read() and spi_qup_block_write() for BLOCK mode.

Same here and below.

Thank you.
