Thats true, "device nodes" makes sense.

Opps..
I remember fixing this, I will take care of it in next version.

Yes, eeprom-names is needed in the consumer nodes, where there are 
multiple eeproms cells, its easy to lookup by name rather than 
index,which depends on the order of the entries.

reg-names inside the "data cells" is ok, but I can't think of its use 
immediately. May be useful for debug?
