"spi-nor-" as a prefix seems better, thanks.

I'm still not confident we've settled the discussion on the need for
this property. I really don't like having a mixture of ways to specify
the same thing, so if we can avoid it in any way (e.g., by just being
more specific about device names), then I'd probably prefer that.
