spi: spi-fsl-dspi: Use EOQ for last word in buffer even for XSPI mode
The EOQ mode has a hardware limitation in that it stops the transmission (including the deassertion of the chip select signal) once the host CPU requests end-of-queue for a particular word in the TX FIFO. And XSPI mode has a limitation in that we need a separate CMD FIFO entry for the last byte in the buffer, where the chip select signal needs to be deasserted. It's not a functional limitation, but it's rather clunky and the fact that we need to halt the pipeline and write a single entry to the TX FIFO whenever a buffer ends brings the throughput down when transmitting small buffers. So the idea here is to use EOQ's limitation in our favor when using XSPI mode. Stop special-casing that final word in the buffer, and just kill the chip select signal by issuing an EOQ for that last word. Now it can be mixed in with all the other words in the current TX FIFO train. A small trick here is that we still keep using the XSPI-specific signaling via the CMDTCFQ interrupt in RSER, and not enabling the EOQ interrupt, in order to avoid hardware weirdness (potential races with separate interrupts being raised for CMDTCFQ and EOQ for what is in fact the end of the same transmission). That is just theoretical, but it's good to be cautious, and the EOQ interrupt isn't needed.
