The above two properties are device-specific, and the same for all
devices of the same type, thus leading to duplication.
Hence I think this should not be specified in DT, but instead handled
by the driver. I.e. for Linux, you would retrieve this from struct
spi_device, as filled in by the slave driver.

Same here.
