[PATCH] spi: spi-mem: ease checks in dtr_supports_op()

[Dhruva Gole <d-gole@ti.com>]

Remove the extra conditions that cause some cases to fail prematurely
like if the data number of bytes is odd. The controller can handle odd
number of bytes data read in DTR Mode. Don't fail supports op for this
condition.

For a deeper context, refer to a cover letter from an earlier patch
series:
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20221019064759.493607-1-d-gole@ti.com/T/#m3fd93bdcc30b3b5faada6abe45a4104388afc300
Here, I am trying to boot from OSPI Flash present on board the AM62-SK
EVM. However, despite enabling the necessary configs and DT nodes, my
boot flow seemed to be failing. I then came to know that the condition
causing this failure was that my generated DTB was of odd number of
bytes.
So, while loading the dtb from the Octal SPI NOR Flash to the memory,
the data.nbytes was odd which made the supports_op
function return false. This check feels a little too strict at the
spi-mem stage and we should let the controller decide what to do in case
of odd bytes in DTR. After applying this patch, I was able to
succesfully boot the AM62SK EVM without any issues.

I would also like to justify this patch by pointing the community to the
equivalent code in the linux kernel, in drivers/spi/spi-mem.c, where this check
is absent as well.

The controller does work with odd number of bytes and I have not seen
any sort of bugs in the absence of this supports_op check. Hence, feel
that it is safe enough to discard this check from here.
