I believe they're aware: I tried to propose a patch to fix this in the
spi core, but it looks like it was rejected - with feedback: "fix the
client drivers instead"

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/spi-devel-general/patch/20201106150706.29089-1-TheSven73@xxxxxxxxx/#23747737

I will respin this minimal fix as v2, add Fixes tags and Cc the
people involved, as you suggested.
