Hi Mark,

Yes sorry about that, I wasn't aware that I've some feedback when I
sent V2 for a quickfix.

I will take care about your comment:

Is there a binding documentation for spidev ? I didn't find it.

My understanding is to have something more specific like:
compatible = "mediatek,genio350"
Or maybe use the SoC name, to be aligned with the DTS ?
compatible = "mediatek,spi-mt8365"

Regards,
Alex
