[PATCH] powerpc: dts: Remove "spidev" nodes

From: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-12-17 22:14:13

"spidev" is not a real device, but a Linux implementation detail. It has
never been documented either. The kernel has WARNed on the use of it for
over 6 years. Time to remove its usage from the tree.
