I read some more docs and will hopefully make things right with my next
patch version. And I start a new thread with every new version and the
recommended subject.

Okay, I start new threads with new versions.

Other device trees with wifi connected to mmc controller use wifi-pwrseq
as node name. Wifi is one of the generic names. I use this node name in
the next patch version.
