My suggestion was to remove the ifdefs, not the code, and if I
understand the reply correctly that won't work because in that
case multiple devices would be registered with the SPI core
on the same SPI interface.

Both Jean and myself sent Reviewed-by/Acked-by feedback.
Not being the maintainers, that is pretty much all we can do.
From there it is really up to the maintainer to accept
or reject the patches.

Sure, we both suggested that the code is messy, but cleaning
that up would or should be a separate task anyway for someone
who has both the hardware and the time/interest to do it.
