I am making an *assumption* here that the person who wrote the driver intended it to be in polling mode if BUF_SIZE = 0 (all interrupt related code gets left out if thats the case including installing the interrupt vector).
I started with the polling mode driver as I thought it would be easy to get it going on my target first.
Please let me know if I am missing something.
