Are you sure that all bits per word settings other than those explicitly
supported should be handled in exactly the same fashion as 8 bits per
word?  That doesn't seem entirely expected.  I'd expect the default to
be to return an error.

This appears to be some half implemented debugging code which is never
enabled, please remove it.

Similarly here, the core already has extensive trace stuff in it which
you can use.

Please write normal code with an if/else rather than using gotos, it's a
lot easier to follow.

Do we really need tod isable the hardware after every single message?
It's normally more efficient to just leave the hardware powered until it
goes idle and unprepare_transfer_hardware() is called.

unlikely() is for fast paths, outside of them it's just noise.

This is broken, it will break in progress transfers.  setup() shouldn't
be doing anything that disrupts them, anything that can't be run when
other transfers are in progress needs to be deferred till we actually do
the transfers (or done earlier in probe).
