Node names should be generic. See also an explanation and list of
examples (not exhaustive) in DT specification:
https://devicetree-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter2-devicetree-basics.html#generic-names-recommendation

What is the point of pwrseq if there is no consumer/user of it? Looks
like simple placeholder and anyway maybe the future consumer should just
use reset directly.
