 Do you really need isolation across an SPI link?   Why not just use a
common ground.

You do want isolation between the high voltage motor and the digital
controller.  But if you already have this you don't need another layer.

Ethernet is galvanically isolated and runs at 1GHz.  Proof that you could
isolate your 10MHz SPI link but do you need to?
