I like this in general, but we need to keep a close eye on usecases
that are introduced to make sure that there is alignment between the
contents of the tables.

Perhaps the text should also explain a bit about why we would allow
both paths (in many case, the fallback will work fine)...
Previously a strong reason for that was that there was nothing to ensure
that all dt table entries were mirrored in the spi_device_id table.
As a side effect of the check to ensure module autoloading works, there
is now a check for that.

My personal view is we should still use the more generic path, even if
magic under the hood puts the data in spi_id->driver_data.
