In the DT bindings for SPI devices, it is specified that peripheral
nodes have the @ character in the node name. A SPI controller may need
to create bindings with child nodes that are not peripherals. For
example, the AXI SPI Engine bindings will use an "offloads" child node
to describe what is connected to the offload interfaces of the SPI
controller.
Without this change, the SPI controller would attempt to register all
child nodes as SPI devices. After this change, only nodes with '@' in
the name will be registered as SPI devices.
