Possibly?  I think I've lost track of what the use case is here, usually
for the spidev stuff DT overlays seem like they're the right thing but
perhaps this is different?  If we are doing this at runtime sysfs seems
like a reasonable way to trigger it, though you'd still need the DT to
describe the controller and the chipselects that are available.
