Subject: [PATCH 2/5] Blackfin SPI: work around anomaly 05000119

From: Sonic Zhang <sonic.zhang@...log.com>

Anomaly 05000119 states that the DMA_RUN bit with peripherals isn't
reliable.  However, the way the driver is currently written (DMA IRQ
callback), we don't need the polling in the first place, so drop it.
