If it means anything it's really a system specific controller number but even there it's at least as likely that the system will provide a textual description as a number (eg, SPI_FLASH) and if it's supposed to map onto something that can be abstracted between systems there's no guarantee that if there's more than one SPI device to consider they'll be provided by the same arrangement of controllers and chip selects on different boards (which seems to be a use case here) so the spidev names would still vary.
