wifi: rtw88: sdio: Always use two consecutive bytes for word operations
The Allwinner sunxi-mmc controller cannot handle word (16 bit) transfers. So and sdio_{read,write}w fails with messages like the following example using an RTL8822BS (but the same problems were also observed with RTL8822CS and RTL8723DS chips): rtw_8822bs mmc1:0001:1: Firmware version 27.2.0, H2C version 13 sunxi-mmc 4021000.mmc: unaligned scatterlist: os f80 length 2 sunxi-mmc 4021000.mmc: map DMA failed rtw_8822bs mmc1:0001:1: sdio read16 failed (0x10230): -22 Use two consecutive single byte accesses for word operations instead. It turns out that upon closer inspection this is also what the vendor driver does, even though it does have support for sdio_{read,write}w. So we can conclude that the rtw88 chips do support word access but only on SDIO controllers that also support it. Since there's no way to detect if the controller supports word access or not the rtw88 sdio driver switches to the easiest approach: avoiding word access.
