Then you need to adjust fixed-partitions for such case. See syscon case
(all over the tree and Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.yaml).

There was some misunderstanding then. We talk here about scpart-id name.
Adding vendor prefix cannot be a separate patch because it does not make
much sense. You add new property with wrong name and immediately
change/fix it in next patch.

No, it should have proper name since beginning. The property is not used
in the kernel.

This can be separate patch, but it's separate issue...
