Álvaro Fernández Rojas 8c405cdccc bcm27xx: add 6.6 kernel patches
The patches were generated from the RPi repo with the following command:
git format-patch v6.6.34..rpi-6.1.y

Some patches needed rebasing and, as usual, the applied and reverted, wireless
drivers, Github workflows, READMEs and defconfigs patches were removed.

Subject: [PATCH 0276/1085] spi: bcm2835: Workaround/fix for zero-length
transfers
A relatively recent commit ([1]) contained optimisation for the PIO
SPI FIFO-filling functions. The commit message includes the phrase
"[t]he blind and counted loops are always called with nonzero count".
This is technically true, but it is still possible for count to become
zero before the loop is entered - if tfr->len is zero. Moving the loop
exit condition to the end of the loop saves a few cycles, but results
in a near-infinite loop should the revised count be zero on entry.
Strangely, zero-lengthed transfers aren't filtered by the SPI framework
and, even more strangely, the Python3 spidev library is triggering them
for no obvious reason.
Avoid the problem completely by bailing out of the main transfer
function early if trf->len is zero, although there may be a case for
moving the mitigation into the framework.
