    tegra124: implement x2 mode for SPI transfers on CBFS media
    
    This implements x2 mode when reading CBFS media over SPI.
    
    In theory this effectively doubles our throughput, though the initial
    results were almost negligibly better. Using a logic analyzer we see
    a pattern of 12 clocks, ~70ns delay, 4 clocks, ~310ns delay. So if we
    want to see further gains here then we'll probably need to tune AHB
    arbitration and utilization to eliminate bubbles/stalls when copying
    from APB DMA.

    nyan: turn on dual-output reads for SPI flash
    
    Nyan's SPI chip is capable of dual-output reads, so let's use it.

    (cherry picked from commit 62de0889a9cfc5686800645d05e21e272e4beb5c)
    
    Squashed three commits to enable dual output spi reads for nyan.
    Also fixed the spi_xfer interface that has been updated to use bytes
    instead of bits.
