Well, since the name should specify the class of device, I would say that
pmu-system-registers is too specific. If we want to change this, I'd say
we should go with system-controller.

As for name specification inside the binding, I agree that binding should
not require the main node to be named specifically. If we want to have
another version anyway, let's drop this.
