Upon reading your comment again: do you suggest to also remove the plain
"renesas,sh-msiof"? That one was present before, since DT support was added
to the driver in

commit cf9c86efecf9510e62388fd174cf607671c59fa3

spi/sh-msiof: Add device tree parsing to driver

This adds the capability to retrieve setup data from the device tree
node. The usage of platform data is still available.

So I prefer not to remove any pre-existing compatible values.
Do you agree?

Thanks!
