Subject: [PATCH 4.2 083/258] spi: bcm2835: BUG: fix wrong use of PAGE_MASK

4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Sperl <kernel@...tin.sperl.org>

commit 2a3fffd45822070309bcf0b1e1dae624d633824a upstream.

There is a bug in the alignment checking of transfers,
that results in DMA not being used for un-aligned
transfers that do not cross page-boundries, which is valid.

This is due to a missconception of the meaning PAGE_MASK
when implementing that check originally - (PAGE_SIZE - 1)
should have been used instead.

Also fixes a copy/paste error.
