I talked to Javier Martinez Canillas yesterday about the spidev driver
and I think I now have a better understanding of what we need to do.
Quick background for Mark. For this automotive program, Qualcomm will be
delivering to Red Hat and our customers parts of the media stack in
userspace. This will be closed source, proprietary code that parts of it
will need to interface with SPI.

We can't add a generic qcom,spidev compatible to the spidev driver since
this is just a software abstraction. Instead, each type of device will
need to have it's own compatible that uniquely describes the type of
device. So you might have a compatible like qcom,spi-video-codec. There
will need to be a DT binding added that describes the hardware. I suspect
that a SPI device can simply be added to trivial-devices.yaml. Once the
DT binding is accepted, the compatible can be added to the spidev.c
driver. If an in-kernel driver is written in the future, then the 
compatible can be moved from spidev to the new driver.

Mark: Is my understanding above correct? If so, will it be a problem to
get a compatible added to spidev.c if the corresponding userspace code is
closed source and proprietary?
