I don't think we need a dependency, the #ifdef checks in there were needed
only to make the driver smaller if OF is disabled and it should still build
fine if someone tries to compile it for CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST without
CONFIG_OF.

If we remove the platform ID, we can however also remove the 
spacc_is_compatible() function and just call of_device_is_compatible()
in its place.
