The value of spi->bits_per_word is checked on function entry to be 8
or 16.  The else clause has no meaning since it can never be reached.

These "else" case is used to ban the slave spi devices which
try to use 32 bits per word mode. This is like to tell those
spi devices with 32 bpw capability "we don't support 32b, pls
change"

The function has the prerequisite code:
	if (spi->bits_per_word != 8 && spi->bits_per_word != 16)
		return -EINVAL;

at the begining of the function so we will never be able to reach the else 
clause that is being removed.
