nRF52840 SPIM Easy DMA buffer >255bytes

We are using the nRF52840 SPIM0 to read 2048 bytes from an SPI slave. ( SES / SDK15.3 )

The nrf libraries only seem to support  a maximum of 255 bytes, so we have compiler warnings when trying to us a uint16_t value as the buffer size.

Reading through the Q&A's it seems that the nRF52840 is capable of this, and the libraries were being updated to support it.

Have the libraries been updated?  Is there an example of an SPIM transfer > 255 bytes using these new libraries?
