Rule of thumb: We're always interested in having new Linux drivers. :)
Even if nobody else uses it today, tomorrow may be a different story.
In this case, while the SPI list is probably the best place to get
a review of its SPI capability (first?), I'd suggest that LKML would
be the best place to get feedback on how it talks to the serial driver
framework. Alan Cox has been doing a bunch of long-overdue cleanup
to that framework, so there may be updated "best practices" to know.

p.s. Speaking of drivers for slightly atypical devices ... 2.6.25-rc1
added drivers/net/enc28j60.c which is a 10baseT Ethernet driver,
communicating via SPI.
A SPI driver for the n9604 USB peripheral chip would be fun too!
