    mtd: nand: r852: correct write_buf loop bounds
    
    The two loops in r852_write_buf() are designed to handle 4-byte-aligned
    and then 1-byte-aligned portions, respectively. However, there are two
    issues:
    
    (1) The first loop will only terminate if 'len' is a multiple of 4
    (2) The second loop will never terminate if it runs at least once
    
    Rewrite these loops as they were probably intended. Compile tested only.
    
    Issues pointed out by Coverity Scan.
