Yeah, you're right. So the driver can build for !ACPI and !COMPILE_TEST, 
but there's no point really. I'll update.

Yeah, I understand you, but for that I would need to generate multiple 
transactions in the driver, and I wanted to keep 1x transaction per 
spi_controller_mem_ops.exec_op call.

So maybe I can do some trickery in my adjust_op_size method to generate 
these multiple transactions: a. any unaligned start data b. the 
32b-aligned data b. unaligned end. I think that the HW should be able to 
handle that.

Thanks,
John
