Similar to the adc and rtc driver, all Samsung platforms reuse a common
platform-device definition for the s3c64xx-spi and simply will set the correct
name when the machine type is determined during boot.
I.e. I will also have to change my out-of-tree machine stuff to set the
s3c2443-spi name using this method.
The alternative is creating a mulitude of platform devices for each possible
machine type using this driver.
