There are surely no technical difficulties, it's more about 'type
safety', and as a consequence -- resources being discoverable.

If we want to use named resources, I think we should explicitly reserve
the *-{regs,interrupts,gpios} suffixes for such purposes. And once such
a reservation is done, we're safe again -- resources become discoverable.

Thanks,
