For clarification:
There is a register of the SPI controller where you have to configure the
number of bytes that it will request via DMA (primarily support transfers
that are not a multiple of 4 - the data is transferred by DMA as words).
So it is not really related to the general DMA implementation but to the
DMA (request) support of the SPI controller.
