No change in behavior. In standard C the enum type is compatible with
an integer type (char or larger), thus type would just hold a value
outside the rank of an enum.

But why would that happen? What we can get here is just the constants
from pxa2xx_spi_acpi_match[], all of them of enum pxa_ssp_type type.
