Sure, it is wired to the SPI controller, but when you can't also receive interrupts on that very same CPU pin an issue arises. So that pin is also wired to another GPIO with interrupt support. This is the same way that ad4130.yaml is written for example (with the exception that ad4130 supports configuring where the interrupt is routed). In regards to SPI_READY _BITUL(7) /* slave pulls low to pause */: the ad_sigma_delta framework (if it can be called that) is written to expect a pin interrupt, not to use SPI_READY controller feature.
