There are two points with the calculation of RX buffer size which are
not optimal:
1. mtu is a mutual parameter, but actually we need the maximum possible
   MTU. So better use the define directly.
2. This magic number 4 represent the hardware generated frame length
   which is specific to SPI. We better replace this with the suitable
   define.

There is no functional change.

This is a bit confusing why you said no functional change. At first my
thought was that dev->mtu could easily be smaller than the maximum MTU.
(thats why its configurable after all?). But actually the diff context
cuts off a few lines that are extremely relevant:

We assign dev->mtu here to QCAFRM_MAX_MTU

And then use it here.

Makes sense to use the constant directly.

It might have helped to have a bit more of this context in the commit
message, but its still a good cleanup.
