[PATCH] Fix an error that can cause fsl espi task blocked for more than 120 seconds

[Jane Wan]

Incorrect condition is used in spin_event_timeout().  When the TX is done, the SPIE_NF bit in ESPI_SPIE register is set to 1 to indicate the Tx FIFO is not full.  If the bit is 0, it indicates the Tx FIFO is full.

Due to this error, if the Tx FIFO is full at the beginning, but becomes not full after handling the Rx FIFO (the SPIE_NF bit is set), the spin_event_timeout() returns with timeout occurred.  It causes the interrupt handler not to send completion notification to the thread that called wait_for_complete() waiting for the notification.
