It depends a bit on whether there is any plausible chance of anyone making
use of say greybus with the device (I think that still relies on the spi id
though not checked recently). If not and no board files exist, chances are
that all is needed is the id table (to make autoprobing of modules work).
Still I'd not leave the opening for the unexpected to happen given users
have an annoying habit of finding the corner cases :)
