Hey, I proposed other solutions you didn't want to implement!

Right, but you have to admit that the other solutions turned out to be
rather out of scope for someone like me who merely wants to use the spidev
driver.

But I don't blame you. I'm now having a better idea of how things are (or
aren't) supposed to look like. So thanks for your patience!

I'm not sure platforms like this are a great fit for DT TBH - the
trouble with DT is that it turns things into ABIs regardless of if it's
really a finished thing, platform data based systems were a lot more
flexible here.

I see your point. Still it seems like the overlays would provide a sufficient alternative in matters of flexibility. Raspberry Pi uses it for years, which made me assume that some generic loading API is available. But it seems like everything is RPi-specific and downstream.
