Stewart, Ben, JK,

Today on P8 system, we have few nodes/properties specific to service processor .
Ex:  on FSP based system we have /fsps node and on BMC based system we have /bmc 
node.

On P9, since we are building DT, I was thinking of renaming it /sp. This may 
require some changes
in OPAL. (Not sure about kernel side, haven't looked into it).

Is it fine to rename DT nodes/properties between processor releases -OR- Do we 
want to continue
with existing properties (like /fsp on fsp based system). ?
