A few simple notes:

Please consider using checkpatch.

Shouldn't this include file be in the drivers/spi directory?

You could save a couple of later #ifdefs by
moving the #ifdef inside the function

static void dump_trailer(etc)
{
#ifdef DUMP_RX
	...
#endif
}

OOM messages aren't necessary as a generic OOM message
is already emitted along with a dump_stack();
