[PATCH] Fix Oops with Atmel SPI

Anders,
I just tested one path, the "if (xfer->rx_buf)...", on
2.6.33 plus the at91 patch
http://maxim.org.za/AT91RM9200/2.6/2.6.33-at91.patch.gz
running on AT91SAM9260.
The test case involved doing i/o via the /dev/mtdblock
interface -- but this only exercises the rx_buf/vmalloc path --
MTD reads a block into the cache-buf to merge the write data. Not
sure that we have any use cases for the tx_buf path using MTD.
