This should be handled by the SPI core, it's already relying on being
able to do multiple transfers to handle message size limits and in any
case this is a super standard thing to do so many clients would require
special code. The core should transparently coalesce things where it
can, or error out if it can't, like it currently does when splitting
transfers up.
