Moving both nodes in a common node + using a different compatible depending on SPI or I2S usage sounded good) but it is not enough. In this series the common node is named as following: "spi2s2: spi@4000b000". It is fine for a spi usage but if we want to use this "common node" with I2S compatible and specific bindings, the node name remains spi@... and then specific spi checks are done. For this with this series applied we got this issue reported by spi-controller.yaml:
