Historical aside: in traditional OF there aren't "node names" as such.
Each node has a 'name' and 'reg' property and the "node name"
displayed in listings is formed from those as address@hidden - with
the tricky catch being that unit-address is encoded from 'reg' in a
bus specific manner (using what's essentially a method attached to the
parent node).

Obviously that's awkward in the flat tree world, since we can't have
methods.  So instead nodes have a real string name built into the
structure including both the name and unit address components.  'name'
properties are generally omitted and derived from that name.  'reg'
should match according to the bus's encoding conventions, but the
number of things that can actually verify that is relatively small.

Um.  This still makes no sense.  In order to have a common interrupt
space, those nodes must have an interrupt-parent pointing somewhere -
the top level interrupt controller, which needs interrupt-controller
and #interrupt-cells properties.  Note that that will be the "source"
side of the intc.  There could also be a presentation side of the
intc, which wouldn't need those properties.
