[U-Boot] [PATCH 4/4] spi: exynos: Support word transfers

Since SPI register access is so expensive, it is worth transferring data
a word at a time if we can. This complicates the driver unfortunately.

Use the byte-swapping feature to avoid having to convert to/from big
endian in software.

This change increases speed from about 2MB/s to about 4.5MB/s.
