I agree with you on this and I see the point, but Rob had a very 
different opinion about the reg-names bindings to start with.

This topic been discussed in the past with Rob in many instances ex: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/CAL_Jsq+MMunmVWqeW9v2RyzsMKP+=kMzeTHNMG4JDHM7Fy0HBg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

According to him, reg-names seems to be highly discouraged as it came 
along for the OMAP folks and was related to the hwmods stuff.
