How come this did not trigger until now ?

This does not look quite right, since compatible this is used only on:

arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6ull-dhcor-maveo-box.dts

       model = "DH electronics i.MX6ULL DHCOR on maveo box";
       compatible = "marantec,imx6ull-dhcor-maveo-box", 
"dh,imx6ull-dhcor-som",

So the whole

       spidev@0 {
               compatible = "dh,dhcom-board";
               reg = <0>;
               spi-cpha;
               spi-cpol;
               spi-max-frequency = <54000000>;
       };

Should probably use a different compatible.

Christoph, what device is this on this board ?

(and this change should only be applied with RB from Christoph, I do not 
have the hardware so I cannot tell what it really is)

Wouldn't it make more sense to allow those properties for trivial SPI 
devices in general ?
