Fixes a data corruption bug in pxa2xx_spi.c when operating in full
duplex mode with DMA and using buffers that overlap.
SPI transmit and receive buffers are allowed to be the same or to
overlap. However, this driver fails if such overlap is attempted
in DMA mode because it maps the rx and tx buffers in the wrong order.
By mapping DMA_FROM_DEVICE (read) before DMA_TO_DEVICE (write), it
invalidates the cache before flushing it, thus discarding data which
should have been transmitted.
The patch corrects the order of mapping. This bug exists in all
versions of pxa2xx_spi.c; similar bugs are in the drivers for two
other SPI controllers (au1500, imx).
A version of this patch has been tested on kernel 2.6.20 using
verification of loopback data with: random transfer length, random
bits-per-word, random positive offsets (both larger and smaller than
transfer length) between the start of the rx and tx buffers, and
varying clock rates.

This patch applies to kernels 2.6.27 and 2.6.28; it should be
applied to both. A separate patch will be required for older
kernels.
