Ah, not in mainline yet, from linux-next

  commit a58d73340b0ec93fc29a826e45fbbfbc3f81b7eb

The arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-388-gp.dts from below was
meant as the example for the conflict I mentioned.

That's another option I missed.

  $ git grep -n ahci.:
  arch/arm/boot/dts/spear1310.dtsi:59:            ahci0: ahci at b1000000 {
  arch/arm/boot/dts/spear1310.dtsi:68:            ahci1: ahci at b1800000 {
  arch/arm/boot/dts/spear1310.dtsi:77:            ahci2: ahci at b4000000 {
  arch/arm/boot/dts/spear1340.dtsi:42:            ahci0: ahci at b1000000 {

Not a big list which I have here and the nodes themselves are named
ahci at xxxxxxxx.

Did you just find a bug? :)

*ufm sprung gxi* (about to head out), sorry for the mix-up. The synology
dts would actually have worked for both usb and sata labels :)

  $git grep -hn -A8 usb3_0_phy: arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-synology-ds116.dts
  191:    usb3_0_phy: usb3_0_phy {
  192-            compatible = "usb-nop-xceiv";
  193-            vcc-supply = <&reg_usb3_0_vbus>;
  194-    };
  195-
  196-    usb3_1_phy: usb3_1_phy {
  197-            compatible = "usb-nop-xceiv";
  198-            vcc-supply = <&reg_usb3_1_vbus>;
  199-    };

Let's add another argument for and against usb3_x type labels:

  $ git grep -hn usb arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-38x.dtsi
  455:                    usb0: usb at 58000 {
  593:                    usb3_0: usb3 at f0000 {
  601:                    usb3_1: usb3 at f8000 {

They might actually be considered different types. usb vs. usb3, though
that feels quite arbitrary.

  $ git grep -hn usb3_0 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/usb/qcom,dwc3.txt
  45:             usb3_0: usb30 at 0 {

usb3_0 could be mistaken for the protocol version. A bit of a stretch as well ...

First thought was using usb0,usb1,usb2. For the individual linksys
boards this meant a potential pit-fall, namely using "usb2:" for the
only USB 3.0 port while "usb0:" for the only USB 2.0 port appears in the
armada-385-linksys.dtsi only, hence the quest for alternatives.

In the end it boils down to I couldn't make out a definitive standard and
made a pick that felt about right.

If there was an obvious choice there wouldn't have been a reason to omit
the labels this patch handles when handling the bulk. Make the bulk a none
discussion item and handle the corner cases later. Guess that's what
happened here.

Thanks
