next_after should be declared where it's actually used.

I don't think you need this variable (see below).

Should be declared where it's actually used, and you don't want it to be a u8
since you're checking that the result does not exceed 255 which will always
be true with a u8.

This can be simplified:

/*
* Skip dummy bytes transfer if they were issued with the
* previous transfer.
*/
if (tqspi->dummy_cycles) {
WARN_ON(!xfer->dummy_data);
tqspi->dummy_cycles = 0;
}

* Tegra QSPI hardware supports dummy bytes transfer after actual

*/
if (!list_is_last(&xfer->transfer_list, &msg->transfers)) {
struct spi_transfer *next_xfer;

next_xfer = list_next_entry(xfer, transfer_list);
if (next_xfer->dummy_data) {
u32 dummy_cycles = next_xfer->len * 8 /
next_xfer->tx_nbits;
if (dummy_cycles <= QSPI_DUMMY_CYCLES_MAX)
tqspi->dummy_cycles = dummy_cycles;
}
}
