Yes, I didn't made any modification to sun4i_spi_drain_fifo() function:

static inline void sun4i_spi_drain_fifo(struct sun4i_spi_priv *priv, int 
len)
{
     u8 byte;

     while (len--) {
         byte = readb(&priv->regs->rxdata);
         if (priv->rx_buf)
             *priv->rx_buf++ = byte;
     }
}
