Ok, I'll try to adjust this, so we can leave spi-[rx/tx]-bus-width 
undefined and still get quad mode as default if possible.

Unfortunately in the current setup, the definitions for the reg property 
are already broken.

For example imx6sx-sdb.dts seems to have one chip connected on bus A, 
CS0 and one on bus B, CS0. It has reg set to 0 for the first and 1 for 
the second chip.

While fsl-ls208xa-qds.dtsi uses the same hw setup, but has reg set to 0 
and 2.

So either way we need to change the reg property at some place.
So the best approach in my opinion is to fix the definitions to use a 
single scheme and while at it also remove the fsl,qspi-has-second-chip 
property, that is not needed if a single consistent scheme for the reg 
properties is used.
