Why did you send this to the ppc list but not the spi or mtd lists?

I'm having a hard time following the flow of how these SPI devices get
bound -- is the compatible involved at all?  I don't see this string
(with vendor prefix included) in the driver.  I do see a table that
contains what looks like device IDs.  If the device can report its id,
shouldn't we rely on that rather than device tree compatible?
