Bits-per-word == 0 must be interpreted as == 8.
Simple bug in the ppc4xx code. It currently rejects
values other than 8.
Speaking of spi_ppc4xx issues ... I still have an oldish
copy in my review queue, it needs something like the
appended patch. (Plus something to accept bpw == 0.)
Is there a newer version?
