The reason is that in this use case the platform code doesn't provide
a list of spi devices.  The list of devices is contained in the
flattened device tree, and the data is parsed after the spi bus is
created.

But you're right; the fact that each driver has to explicitly call
this function is a problem.  I plan to write a patch to remove all
those calls in each driver and call it from the core spi core instead.
