Also, this patchset adds the autodetect procedure as discussed in the review
of the previous series at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220826233116.uulisbo663cxiadt@mobilestation/

So, we should be able to replace "snps,dw-apb-ssi" and
"snps,dwc-ssi-1.01a" with "snps,dw-ahb-ssi" after this.
And, also this generic compatible has been tested with the new 1.03a
version we are working with, which was
mentioned in my v1 at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220826233305.5ugpukokzldum7y5@mobilestation/

Just "snps,dwc-ssi-1.01a". That is the IP-core
https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?c=dwc_ssi
which support was added in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-spi/20200505130618.554-4-wan.ahmad.zainie.wan.mohamad@intel.com/
Since the IP-core version is auto-detectable there is no need in
having the version attached to the compatible string. That's why I
asked @Sudip to introduce a new generic device name free of the
version suffix. It should be used instead of "snps,dwc-ssi-1.01a"
from now.

The "snps,dw-apb-ssi" compatible string will stay since it corresponds
to another IP-core:
https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?c=DW_apb_ssi

Answering to the @Rob note regarding the quirk properties. All the
features added by Sudip here were supposed to be auto-detectable.
So the generic IP-core name will be still useful as before with no
need in adding any quirks.

@Rob AFAIR you used to be against the generic fallback compatible
names, but had nothing against just generic compatibles. Has something
changed?
