The model property is already used for the verbose name of a board. I
described it as:
/*
* The model is the verbose name of a board. It can contain
* whitespaces, uppercase/lowcer letters, digits, ',', '.'
* '-', '_'
*/
Whereas the hostname is without whitespaces, I described it as:
/*
* The hostname is supposed to be the shortname of a board. It should
* contain only lowercase letters, numbers, '-', '_'. No whitespaces
* allowed.
*/
I think it is reasonable to add a hostname property to the devicetree.
The last time I thought about this I couldn't really agree with myself
how to name it.
