In qspi_transfer_in(), when receiving the last n (or len) bytes of data,
1 bogus byte was written in the receive buffer.
This code leads to a buffer overflow.

"jffs2: jffs2_scan_eraseblock(): Magic bitmask 0x1985 not found at 0x03b40000: 
0x1900 instead
 jffs2: jffs2_scan_eraseblock(): Magic bitmask 0x1985 not found at 0x03b40004: 
0x000c instead"

The error message above happens when trying to mount, unmount, and remount a 
jffs2-formatted device.
This patch removed the bogus write and for clearer to use, here replaced "n" by 
"len" in
qspi_transfer_in() and qspi_transfer_out() to fixes: 3be09bec42a800d4
"spi: rspi: supports 32bytes buffer for DUAL and QUAD"

Here is Geert's comments:

"May I suggest the following:

    spi: rspi: Fix bogus received byte in qspi_transfer_in()

    When there are less than QSPI_BUFFER_SIZE remaining bytes to be received,
    qspi_transfer_in() writes one bogus byte in the receive buffer, possibly
    leading to a buffer overflow.

    This can be reproduced by mounting, unmounting, and remounting a
    jffs2-formatted device, causing lots of warnings like:

        jffs2: jffs2_scan_eraseblock(): Magic bitmask 0x1985 not found
at 0x03b40000: 0x1900 instead

    Remove the bogus write to fix this.

It's also a good idea to add a Fixes tag:

    Fixes: 3be09bec42a800d4 ("spi: rspi: supports 32bytes buffer for
DUAL and QUAD")

(the code was moved afterwards, but both the origin and the move were
 integrated in v4.10-rc1)."
