Agree. Fixed in V3

As explained in patch1 we need to use SPI word size in calculation to decide 
if we want to go with DMA or PIO mode. Just a short example:
We need to transfer 24 SPI words with BPW == 32. This will take ~ 24 PIO writes
to FIFO (and same for reads). But transfer->len will be 24*4=96 bytes.
WML is 32 SPI words. The decision will be incorrect if we do not take into account
SPI bits per word.

What do you mean? We have had bpw_w == 1 before so 
spi_imx->txfifo = DIV_ROUND_UP(left, spi_imx->bpw_w);
is equivalent to
spi_imx->txfifo = left;
Now we could have bpw_w equal to 2 or 4 also. txfifo is number of SPI words
and not number of bytes.
