So this is a warning from DT compiler and triggered with W=12, I
see tons of examples using "_" in node names. Clearly someone realized
it (Rob ?) added a warning for it.

As you rightly thought, qcs404 will be okay as we are starting out and following
few conventions so keeping this saner :)

I agree that it makes sense to add the property in gcc node. I will add
this in my list and chase if after my current task completes, if that is
fine by you

Thanks
