Hi Darius

Please give a brief statement of what differs between these and the
many other compatibles in this binding (beyond the ID register)?

(usually scales, features etc)

In particularly you state in the docs patch that one of them
is functionally equivalent to an existing part so there a fallback
compatible is appropriate.

See how the st,lsm6dsx does it.  The reason to do this it allows
the potential for an old kernel driver to work fine with a newer
device tree.

Other than that the series looks good to me.

Given we have a case where data could be shared, longer term
breaking up the chip_info array into individual structures would
allow sharing of the data.

The name handling in here isn't ideal as it relies on matching
in the spi_device_id table which is fragile.  Doing that more
cleanly might break the sharing of structures.  Oh well, not
relevant for this set anyway.
