Subject: [PATCH 1/1] spi: imx: fix issue when tx_buf or rx_buf is NULL

From: Jiada Wang <jiada_wang@...tor.com>

In case either transfer->tx_buf or transfer->rx_buf is NULL,
manipulation of buffer in spi_imx_u32_swap_u[8|16]() will cause
NULL pointer dereference crash.

Add buffer check at very beginning of spi_imx_u32_swap_u[8|16](),
to avoid such crash.
