Actually this is described in comments above the call. So after writing
data tail by CPU we must ensure cache content is flushed to RAM.
Otherwise SPI core during dma_unmap will invalidate data in the CPU
cache and we loose our data tail. I'm able to reproduce this very fast
during 20-30 SPI transactions.
Hope this make things clearer.
