It doesn't really matter though, or at least it does for what the new
name might be, but the old one currently used is still pretty bad.

The DT spec says that the node name is the class of the device. "usb" as
the HCD binding mandates is one, but the current nodes currently have
completely different names from one DT to another - which is already an
issue - and most of them have dwc3 or some variant of it, which doesn't
really qualify for a class name.
