Practice.

$ grep qe@ arch/powerpc/boot/dts/*
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc832x_mds.dts:  qe@e0100000 {
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc832x_rdb.dts:  qe@e0100000 {
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc836x_mds.dts:  qe@e0100000 {
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc8568mds.dts:   qe@e0080000 {

-immr would be the good name indeed (just as I've said previously).
