Oh, right...

Well, same thing as before, maybe you can change it and keep the driver
backward compatible? I don't want new DT to use this property because
it is not generic and we must have a way from the core to find the ECC
engine handle when the controller does not embed one itself (thus, the
ecc-engine property which is around for quite some time already).

Thanks,
Miquèl
