This is the early_device class name creeping in. I usually used the
"device_type" property, but been told this wasn't the right way...

Of course, if we get rid of the idea of early devices, this is a moot point.

There's only one version of TWD at the moment, so I guess I'll tie it to
the CPU core implementation, e.g: "arm,twd-11mpcore", "arm,twd-cortex-a9"...

Yup, spotted. Will use it as soon as it appears in a tree nearby.
