So it's draining fifo without need to checking the available count
insun4i_spi_drain_fifo(), I mean the below code not require.

        /* See how much data is available */
        reg = readl(&priv->regs->fifo_sta);
        reg &= SUN4I_FIFO_STA_RF_CNT_MASK;
        cnt = reg >> SUN4I_FIFO_STA_RF_CNT_BITS;

        if (len > cnt)
                len = cnt;
