We can't use bpw_w from spi_imx_data because this is external callback 
for SPI core and driver does not know the purpose of this call. We also 
can't update current bpw_w for the same reason.

I'll add a function like this:
int spi_imx_get_bytes_per_word(int bpw)
{
     return DIV_ROUND_UP(bpw, BITS_PER_BYTE);
}
