It's a serial device which is also used for other applications (the
other one upstream being audio) so I can see where the current binding
comes from and it's not super obvious that spi is especially better
here.

Hmm... okay. Then it's question to DT people. Consider this as a report.
Because UART (aka serial) is definitely not the place for SPI/SSP bindings
either.
