Several hundred? I don't think there are several hundred unique
property names or compatible entries in arch/powerpc/boot/dts *total*,
much less that need fixing. The main ones in fsl-land that I can think
of are gianfar, i2c, talitos, QE, USB, tsi108, watchdog, SPI, and IPIC.
CPM1 and CPM2 devices, PCI, 85xx memory/cache controllers, and 85xx
global utilities have the prefix.
For the most part, we've been adding prefixes whenever we have any other
reason to touch the binding.
