According to the D1 datasheet the SPI_DBI controller uses the same
registers layout as the regular SPI0 controller.
But also it has an additional DBI mode functionality. Support for this
mode is not yet implemented.
So there is no difference between 'sun50i-r329-spi' and
'sun50i-r329-spi-dbi' controllers types in the SPI driver.
Maybe we should drop 'sun50i-r329-spi-dbi' compatible struct from here

for a while the DBI mode functionality will not be implemented?
