The version you posted only has LPC support, not eSPI, so that wouldn't work. I'm not sure how eSPI is normally represented in device drivers, does that show up the same way as an LPC device, or do you need to register a separate spi_driver? If it's part of the same platform driver with different OF compatible strings, the normal way to handle this would be to use the .data field in the of_device_id to pass model specific information to other parts of the driver.
