The current use of the mode flag SPI_CS_HIGH is fragile: it
overwrites anything already assigned by the SPI core.
Assign ^= SPI_CS_HIGH since we might be active high
already, and that is usually the case with GPIOs used
for chip select, even if they are in practice active low.

Driver inverts meaning of GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW/HIGH. Fix it to prevent
confusion.

Currently if the allocation of new_buf fails then a null pointer
dereference occurs when assiging new_buf->vb. Avoid this by returning
early on a memory allocation failure as there is not much more can
be done at this point.
