The driver needs to shift the word bit after reading the mosi bit.
Otherwise the return word will have an Off-by-one bit value.

This isn't exactly new code...  do we understand why nobody has noticed
this before?

Just looking at the context here it's not obvious to me that this is
helping - it means that the last bit we read is going to be shifted
which seems wrong, we ought to be reading into LSB.

I too suspect that the bug (if there is any) is elsewhere.

It might be more robust to 

  if (!(flags & SPI_MASTER_NO_RX) && getmiso(spi))
    word |= 1;
    
instead.  This decouples the construction of the received bits
buffer from whatever the getmiso() implementation might look
like.  That's just a thought after the recent GPIO discussion
about whether 1/0 is given or should not be assumed (and I still
suspect that "!!x" need not result in exactly 1/0 values).

And I agree with Mark that the "late shift" is most probably
wrong.  Just noticed the resend too late and responded in the
other thread.
