The Linux SPI subsystem is not designed for things like this.

It's based on workqueues.

http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6916

Use the OMAP3 McBSP controller instead.

McBSP3 can be mux'd out pins 27-30 on most of the expansion boards (gpio
144-147)

I've used it in a number of projects and you can get very good,
deterministic performance from it.

It can do 'SPI' protocol, but with only one 'slave' device.
