Hi Jonathan,

Just for closure, I also realized that the pattern in IIO looks to be to use
DMA safe buffers only on the tx side. For instance in the IMU lib [1],
only the tx buffer is safe (well, I think there's problem with this as
I believe all spi transfers buffers should be properly aligned which won't
be the case in the IMU lib). Is there any reason for this? AFAICT, we should
also take care with rx buffers or am I missing something?
