This actually makes sense seeing the function argument can have values
1, 2, _3_ and 4:
dws->n_bytes = DIV_ROUND_UP(transfer->bits_per_word, BITS_PER_BYTE);
transfer->bits_per_word = __F__(master->bits_per_word_mask = SPI_BPW_RANGE_MASK(4, 32));
...
dw_spi_dma_convert_width(dws->n_bytes)

The spi_transfer.bits_per_word field value depends on the
SPI peripheral device communication protocol requirements which may
imply the 3-bytes word xfers (even though it's indeed unluckily).

This semantic will also match to what we currently have in the
IRQ-based SPI-transfer implementation (see dw_writer() and
dw_reader()).
