Hmm... it seems like I thought there was a good reason for it at the
time, but looking at it again, I agree with your assessment.

The SPI offload stuff is not likely to be merged soon. But there is
ad7606 + AXI ADC support from Guillaume that was just merged that
could make use of this. So I can send this as a stand-alone patch
so that it can be made available for that too.
