Subject: [PATCH] spi: atmel: init FIFOs before spi enable

The datasheet recommends initializing FIFOs before
SPI enable. If we do not do it like this, there may be
a strange behavior. We noticed that DMA does not work properly
with FIFOs if we do not clear them beforehand or enable them
before SPIEN.
