OK. I'll rename to altr,socfpga-ecc-manager

The L2 cache ECC and On-Chip RAM ECC are contiguous registers in the 
ecc-manager block. I may not understand your question but it seems like 
2 levels is correct in that case.

OK. I will add socfpga to all of the compatible fields.

OK. We are currently allocating all our On-Chip RAM (SRAM) to the pool 
so I think the phandle to all of SRAM is fine, right?

Thank you for reviewing.
