Ah, sorry. I wrongly associated you with a different subsystem (I think
MFD), which became irrelevant for this iteration of the patchset,
rather than SPI.

Here's the relevant/new part of the cover letter, for your convenience:

Changelog for v2:

- Dropped the patches which have been applied in the meantime, leaving
  only three out of eight
- Changed the binding to require both items in the reg property, because
  there is no need to keep the second item optional, suggested by
  Krzysztof Kozlowski
- Various other cleanups suggested by Krzysztof Kozlowski and the kernel
  test robot
