FWIW, there already is "altr,fpga-passive-serial" for Altera devices.

Not sure why Altera got this short vendor prefix, but that was 2013
with commit 5db17a71a526 ("of: add vendor prefix for Altera Corp.")
and we probably never know?

The method of transferring the configuration data over SPI into the
FPGA is comparable.  I would go so far to claim a single driver could
support both device families for passive configuration over SPI.  I've
done that in a non-public driver for U-Boot few months ago, and used
"efinix,fpga-passive-serial" as a compatible there.  The difference is
basically Altera requiring more GPIOs considered, and Efinix keeping
the SPI clock on for some time after data is already transfered.
