Seems you broke the order.

"chips running" (no comma needed)

Maybe no need to include SPI in the (1) along with dropping this line?

Moving these two to (2) ?

devm_kzalloc() ?

This has been done by device driver core  for the past 10+ years.

Redundant blank line.

Keep a comma to avoid unneeded churn in the future.

One line?

No users of this header. Use forward declarations.

Missed types.h.

Use proper suffix, i.e. _MS.
