[PATCH v2 03/10] spi: Add an helper to flush the message queue

This is needed by the spi-mem logic to force all messages that have been
queued before a memory operation to be sent before we start the memory
operation. We do that in order to guarantee that spi-mem operations do
not preempt regular SPI transfers.

As for the spi_map/unmap_buf() I'd suggest to move the prototype
definition to an internal header file.
