What is userspace? That has nothing to do with bindings.

Please provide some details about this h/w and convince me it is 
trivial.

Taking one step further back ... what are "spi based ABB sensors" ?

This sensors are fully controlled through spidev driver, with a simple
register based interface and they have no other connections as the SPI
lines, so they only need a compatible entry.
