Yeah, I wouldn't use it anyway, see my comment below.

Maybe it is similar in other drivers but at91 platforms can still be
booted without DT, This will fail with:
atmel_spi: probe of atmel_spi.0 failed with error -22

The efm32 only supports DT, it doesn't have board files/platform data.

This will be taken care of by the spi core, in of_spi_register_master():

	nb = of_gpio_named_count(np, "cs-gpios");
	master->num_chipselect = max_t(int, nb, master->num_chipselect);

It is filled when registering the master, here when calling
devm_spi_register_master(). It may be too late at that point.

Maybe you could use the CS number ifor the label here instead of
DRIVER_NAME, at least, use pdev->dev->name and completely drop
DRIVER_NAME.

Mark: maybe it would make sense to do devm_gpio_request_one() in
of_spi_register_master(), after of_get_named_gpio.

While this solves the particular issue Jiří is seeing, this will not
solve the case where PA14 (CS0) is not used by the spi driver at all. It
will remained muxed as CS0 and toggle when the spi master needs to
access CS0 until another driver muxes it to something else. I still
believe we should explicitly ask pinctrl to mux them as gpios.
