You can lose the above two lines, just the Acked-by is good enough. :)

One thing I noticed from the datasheet is that this has a clock input
(sck) and two regulator inputs (vdd and vddio). It might not always be
the case that these are configured statically, so they may need to be
described in the dt. It's possible that they could be added later as
optional properties, though.
