Both!  The driver would get probed from the i2c bus, and it would
create and register an spi master.  If the spi bus registration
includes a pointer to the device tree node, then the child nodes will
automatically be registered as spi_devices.

The dts is also fairly straight forward:

i2c-bus: i...@80001000 {
        compatible = <blah>;
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <0>;

        spi-bus: s...@28{
                compatible = "nxp,sc18is602";
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <0x28>;
                reg = <0>;

                spi-dev...@0 {
                        compatible = <blah>;
                        reg = <0>;
                };
                spi-dev...@1 {
                        compatible = <blah>;
                        reg = <1>;
                };
                spi-dev...@2 {
                        compatible = <blah>;
                        reg = <2>;
                };
        };
};

Cheers,
