Add device tree binding support for the QCOM GENI SE driver.

is a patch train for Generic Interface (GENI) based Qualcomm Universal
Peripheral (QUP) wrapper. The wrapper can contain one or more mini cores
that can be used to implement different serial protocols (I2C/SPI/UART).
We'd submitted the DT bindings for that wrapper core and for UART/I2C
drivers which were part of that patch train; but there was a comment to
add the SPI binding document even without the SPI driver (attaching that
email thread).
I can resubmit the SPI binding documentation as part of this patch series.

Best Regards
