That test_and_set_bit() is a bit odd - what's going on there, perhaps a
comment is in order? I'd also like to see return value checks, though
the original didn't have them so it's not a blocker, and ideally that
should be clk_prepare_enable(). I guess the clock stuff could even be
moved inside the runtime PM callbacks? Again not a blocker if the
existing code doesn't have things but it'd be nice to do.

There's also auto_runtime_pm in the SPI core which will do the runtime
PM for you if you can do it unconditionally.
