Probably we wouldn't know what to do with those extra 2 responses.
_cdns_xfer_msg() tells cdns_fill_msg_resp() to extract the same number
of responses as the original message length. So it would only extract 8
maximum. But anyway yes I can add the mysterious +2 into this.
Thinking about it, that's probably a good idea anyay for the next patch
that drains the RX FIFO after an error.
