Problem Description

In SPI library [SPIClass::writePattern] does not draw the last 8 bytes if repeatRem == 0 in line [518 setDataBits(repeatRem * 8);]. I found this problem on the LCD screen GC9A01. The solution is to add a null check for [repeatRem]:

if (repeatRem)
{
setDataBits(repeatRem * 8);
SPI1CMD |= SPIBUSY;
while(SPI1CMD & SPIBUSY) {}
}

I hope this is a simple patch.
