Superficially, even with the existing IP it feels to me like it's just
a qspi controller + an offload that happens not to need much programming.

You'd pass that offload the spi message structure etc and it would 'notice'
that it corresponds to what it has in hardware and then use that.

For register reads it looks like a simple (Q)SPI bus controller anyway.

So I'm not sure any real changes are needed in the IP to map it
in a more standard way as as a device on a bus.

Note though that key here may be how we do the dt-binding, rather than
what the code does (we can change the internals of the driver later
if we like).

If you built a binding that looked like an spi bus + offload and
could we bind a backend etc as you do currently? 

Might require a bit of juggling to make it work.

That's not in of.h either
add linux/property.h as well.

I'd not bother future proofing that much.  If you think > 32 bit is
likely use a u64.
