[PATCH v5 08/11] spi: imx: allow only WML aligned transfers to use DMA

RX DMA tail data handling doesn't work correctly in many cases with current
implementation. It happens because SPI core was setup to generates both RX
and RX TAIL events. And RX TAIL event does not work correctly.
This can be easily verified by sending SPI transaction with size modulus
WML(32 in our case) not equal 0.

Also removing change introduced in f6ee9b582d2db652497b73c1f117591dfb6d3a90
since this change only fix usecases with transfer size from 33 to 128 bytes
and does not fix 129 bytes etc.

This is output from transaction with len 138 bytes in loopback mode at 10Mhz:

Zeros at offset 33 and 34 caused by reading empty RX FIFO which not possible
if DMA RX read was triggered by RX event. This mean DMA was triggered
by RX TAIL event.
