Sounds like your chip specific quirk. Apparently throughput would
be the last of your concerns :D
Perhaps you have to do single byte transfers with appropriate
non-zero 'delay_usecs' and skilfully toggle 'cs_change' for
each transfer.

IMO that could already be done from within your controller driver.

Why not spi_transfer.delay_usecs ?
