Enable multimode when a transfer of multiple small words can be
transformed in a transfer with a single bigger word. This is allowed as
long as the result on the cable is the same, so word_delay must be zero.

I am not sure if this is the best place to put such "optimization". I
think this improvment should be in the core, as it is not depending on the
driver itself, but I think Mark suggested something like this so if that
fits to what was expected, I am happy to share this small improvement.
