Yes Your understanding is correct. The same hardware in scenario not using ADSP,

and in another enabling DSP.

Could you please suggest better way!.  As pin control driver is the 
first one to probe, I am not getting better approach.

While up-streaming these drivers, concluded to use this approach.

The device tree conveys hardware description and some configuration.

If this is configuration thing, either you could perhaps determine it from the
hardware (if set up in hardware or boot loader) and if that is not possible
it should just be a boolean property of the device
node:

{
    compatible = "...";
    qcom.adsp-mode;
}

If you are probing two different drivers depending on the mode, then there is a
problem of course, but it is a Linux problem not a device tree problem.
