That's just sanity and common (maybe except Tegra) style... Almost every
source uses this, because it gives you code which is independent of node
ordering, node names and unit addresses.

What if I change in next patch axi->soc, how usually we code it?

Override by label/phandle was mentioned many times on mailing lists as
preferred.

Just go with virtio.

Coding style, emails, all new DTS since some years or talks on numerous
conferences... All this code looks like you took some vendor downstream
code and sent it. That's not how it works. You take recent, reviewed DTS
and use it as template. Qualcomm sm8650 or x1e8010 are good examples.
