[U-Boot] [PATCH] spi: soft_spi: Support NULL din/dout buffers

[Andrew Ruder]

This mirrors the conventions used in other SPI drivers (kirkwood,
davinci, atmel, et al) where the din/dout buffer can be NULL when the
received/transmitted data isn't important.  This reduces the need for
allocating additional buffers when write-only/read-only functionality is
needed.

In the din == NULL case, the received data is simply not stored.  In the
dout == NULL case, zeroes are transmitted.
