spidev: fix hang when transfer_one_message fails
commit e120cc0d upstream. This corrects a problem in spi_pump_messages() that leads to an spi message hanging forever when a call to transfer_one_message() fails. This failure occurs in my MCP2210 driver when the cs_change bit is set on the last transfer in a message, an operation which the hardware does not support. Rationale Since the transfer_one_message() returns an int, we must presume that it may fail. If transfer_one_message() should never fail, it should return void. Thus, calls to transfer_one_message() should properly manage a failure.
