OK, I moved the functionality of {prep,eval}_{read,write} to
reg_{read,write} now and removed the BUG_ONs.  Incremental patch below.

An SPI read error won't trigger that.  In this case ret is < 0, and so
(!ret && m.status) is false.

The incremental diff based on the earlier post can be found below.  I
will follow up with the updated patch.
