spi: spi-geni-qcom: Don't wait to start 1st transfer if transmitting
If we're sending bytes over SPI, we know the FIFO is empty at the start of the transfer. There's no reason to wait for the interrupt telling us to start--we can just start right away. Then if we transmit everything in one swell foop we don't even need to bother listening for TX interrupts. In a test of "flashrom -p ec -r /tmp/foo.bin" interrupts were reduced from ~30560 to ~29730, about a 3% savings. This patch looks bigger than it is because I moved a few functions rather than adding a forward declaration. The only actual change to geni_spi_handle_tx() was to make it return a bool indicating if there is more to tx.
