So it seems we are going back to my original plan:
Always enable the SPIBSC node in the .dts to ensure the clocks
stay on for the XIP kernel case. But, if there is no spi-nor partitions in
the node, then simple drop out and do not register the device as a SPI
controller.
However, you can have mtd-rom partitions in there which is what XIP Linux will
use, but we still don't need to register a spi controller for that.

Do you agree?????

OK. I will add the interrupt to the DT.
