I thought I had seen 'altera' instead of an abbreviation being used in
a previous patch. I don't care much whether 'altr' or 'altera' is
used, but I'd like to know that there is consensus from the Altera
users so that all the drivers use the same prefix.
We had discussed on nios2-dev mailing list, and decided to use
'altr' as Walter suggested that it saves space.
Is altr the stock ticker symbol? The convention is to either use the
stock ticker in all uppercase (although the uppercase bit hasn't been
consistently applied), or to use the full name in lowercase.

Risking my limbs here by breaking in this late in the discussion... (I
wasn't able to reply earlier) but where does it state it needs to be
uppercase? I found a bunch of microblaze code which seems to use the
lowercase xlnx and freescale seems happy with fsl. Unless I'm missing
something obvious here I guess ALTR would actually be the first to use
uppercase.
The only reference to uppercase I found in the ePAPR docs was chapter
1.6 that talks about uppercase hex-characters as an OUI.
Not that I terribly mind either way, but I want to double-check before
we go ahead and change all altera-related devicetree stuff to uppercase.
