Simply copying all xfers from userspace into one bounce buffer causes alignment problems if the SPI controller uses DMA. Ensure that all transfer data blocks within the rx and tx bounce buffers are aligned for DMA (according to ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN). Alignment may increase the usage of the bounce buffers. In some cases, the buffers may need to be increased using the "bufsiz" module parameter.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
