When word_to_transfer is more than rx_fifo_avail, then the rx_fifo_avail
becomes zero and hence the nibbles won't be copied. Please take a closer
look, the current code is correct, but the buf_remaining > 3 is unneeded
because it can't ever happen.

The code is structured the way that it's difficult to follow, apparently
the person who added the BUG_ON check in the first place couldn't follow
it either. Maybe it's worth to invest some more effort into refactoring
at least that part of the code. At minimum a clarifying comments would
be helpful.

There are two possible error conditions:

1) Underflow: the XFER_COMPLETE happens before message is fully sent.

2) Overflow: message is fully sent, but there is no XFER_COMPLETE and
then hardware asks to transfer more.

We are addressing the second case here, while you seems are confusing it
with the first case.
