Removing the instance number from the node name is obviously good.
However, I don't think it's really needed to add labels. The XOR
engines are purely "internal" devices, so they are always enabled at
the SoC level.

Yes. The driver has been submitted, but has received some comments that
I need to address.

Thanks!
