Well looks like there's no way I can fix this. I don't have the
hardware, so people using sx1 would need to fix this.

Looks like the driver is attempting to use SPI mode, but is doing it
in a different way compared to mcbsp.c.

I'm suggesting the following patch unless somebody can do a real patch
for this over next few days.
