Sorry. I should have explained it better.

If we add `ibm,*` to prd-label property then it becomes another 
workaround..which I wanted to avoid.
For P9 lifetime, hostboot will continue to add `ibm,` for these reserved nodes 
so that we don't break backward compatibility with distros. This is more of 
preparation for next generation chips.. where
hostboot will just provide consistent name without adding `ibm,`.
