what part are you using exactly ?

ad7843 is used in a popular nios2 dev kit, NEEK.
This driver is a SPI bus client driver. PPC is using devicetree for ages now,
and they don't have problems instantiating this or any other SPI bus driver.
However, the method used is by applying a heuristic (of_modalias_node)
which tries to name the device in a way that will match an existing
device driver. It works for a lot of spi drivers, but it isn't
always reliable.
Alternatively, if of_match_table is populated in the spi_driver, then
the normal device tree match behaviour will always work.
Thanks. The driver did match with the heuristic. But it needs to
determine pen state. I will try to bind a gpio node in dts.
linux/spi/ads7846.h
int gpio_pendown; /* the GPIO used to decide the pendown
* state if get_pendown_state == NULL
*/
