Redundant else after return.

The trigger-sources property is optional, so we should have a special case for
ret == -EINVAL here. Otherwise existing users that use the gpio binding will
fail here.

I would put this in the -EINVAL special case mentioned above, then we don't
nee to use the _optional variant.

This leaks args.fwnode reference on return (but would be fixed if making the
above suggested change).

This seems unsafe. The DT could be pointing to something other than a SPI device.
to_spi_device() calls container_of() so would cause undefined behavior if dev
was something else. Also, even if it is a spi device, we don't know what state
it is in and if it is safe to use it.
I think it would be sufficient for now to just check that args.fw_node is the
the same one as this SPI device since that is the supported case.

Leaks args.fwnode on return. Also, dev_err_probe().
