That's not really any more efficient. You just search the entire tree
for the matching phandle number instead. Well, that was true until we
recently added the phandle cache.

In any case, it you plan to move to the reset binding (which would be
good), then it's better to have nothing in the DT and add something
rather than change the DT binding.
