Ah, this is what I get for reading my emails out of order.

There is existing SPI driver support if that's what you mean
we just haven't documented the binding for it.

Should work via the fallbacks in SPI that drop the vendor id off then match
on the rest.  As I mentioned in reply to v2. It's an old driver so
kind of got DT support by accident.

I'll play catch up at some stage soon on missing binding docs,
(I suspect there are quite a few for older IIO drivers)

Thanks,
