I have no idea based on this commit message what either of these modes
is or how this shorter delay would be achieved, these terms are specific
to the OMAP hardware AFAICT. Please clarify this, it's hard to follow
what the change does. It looks like this is just a CS per word thing?

Note that you may not have to tell the hardware the same word length as
the transfer specifies, so long as the wire result is the same it
doesn't matter.
