Consider what happens if someone for example reuses the I2S controller
in a different board.

It should be fine, things should be working off the hw_pointer.

The driver is checking for specific bits in the status register but
blindly acknowledging all bits that are set, and reporting IRQ_HANDLED
even if none are set.

Yes.

If it's genuinely unrelated to the capabilities of the actual chip then
just putting a standalone driver in the platform directory is fine, but
the code should be clear about that otherwise it looks like the code for
the device could be shared.
