Um.. the same as the other SPI buses? I.e.

i2c-controller {  /* SOC I2C controller */
	spi-controller {  /* The I2C-to-SPI bridge */
		spi-device@0 {
		};
		spi-device@1 {
		};
	};
};

It should be an I2C driver that registers an SPI master (i.e.
calls spi_alloc_master() and spi_register_master()).

Thanks,
