this patch introduces a regression when transmitting large SPI transfers with
a word size != 8 bits. The regression is caused by effectively reverting commit
1e4929112507f ("spi: stm32: split large transfers based on word size instead of
bytes") by changing the call to spi_split_transfers_maxwords() back to
spi_split_transfers_maxsize().

I've sent a patch[1] that fixes this regression by changing the …_maxsize()
call back to …_maxwords().
