The recent change to split reads into chunks has several problems:
1. If an SPI controller has no transfer size limit, max_chunk is
SIZE_MAX, and num_msgs becomes zero, causing no data to be read
into the buffer, and exposing the original contents of the buffer
to userspace,
2. If the requested read size is not a multiple of the maximum
transfer size, the last transfer reads too much data, overflowing
the buffer,
3. The loop logic differs from the write case.
Fix the above by:
1. Keeping track of the number of bytes that are still to be
transferred, instead of precalculating the number of messages and
keeping track of the number of bytes tranfered,
2. Calculating the transfer size of each individual message, taking
into account the number of bytes left,
3. Switching from a "while"-loop to a "do-while"-loop, and renaming
"msg_count" to "segment".
While at it, drop the superfluous cast from "unsigned int" to "unsigned
int", also from at25_ee_write(), where it was probably copied from.

Thanks Geert for the patch. This is particularly important as I
noticed the "fix" has been backported to stable trees.
I was surprised that patch went in as-is; I thought it needed some
discussion before merging. I wasn't sure if it was the correct fix at
all; I wondered if it should have been fixed at the spi layer. Do you
have an opinion there?
Eddie, can you jump in for some testing and a review of this one?
Cheers,
Joel
