Yes this might be the right thing to do. So since it is NXPs bootloader
feel free to fix that ;) Looking at the u-boot code right now, I don't
even know it that is the right fix at all. The fixup code in u-boot is
SoC independent (its in fsl_icid.h and is enabled with CONFIG_LSCH3, ie
your chassis version). For example, the sdhc fixup will scan the nodes
for "compatible = fsl,esdhc", which is also the secondary compatible
for the "ls1028a-esdhc" compatible.

And here is another reason to have it this way: we need backwards
compatibility, the are already boards out there whose bootloader will
fix-up the "old" node. Thus I don't see any other possibilty.
