it really isnt that bad.  the drivers that use "-spi" suffix:
                .modalias = "ad1836-spi",   # audio
                .modalias = "ad1938-spi",   # audio
                .modalias = "ad7147-spi",   # input
                .modalias = "ad9960-spi",   # dead
                .modalias = "bfin-lq035q1-spi",  # video
                .modalias = "fxo-spi",   # dead
                .modalias = "fxs-spi",   # dead

dropping the dead devices leaves us with 4 drivers to fix, two of
which are audio.  should be easy for us to fix.
