Character '_' not recommended in node name. Use '-' instead.
Pretty much run seds below for node names.

The si5335 nodes may be better named after the clock name instead of the
component type, but that's nitpicking.

I don't know what's the guidance on this. fixed-clock.yaml is using generic "clock" name. I have no problem to do it if this is recommended way to go.

Unless I'm mistaken, this will change the userspace API, as it changes
the nvmem cell name. Is it an issue ?

Based on
https://docs.kernel.org/driver-api/nvmem.html#userspace-binary-interface

The only interface to user space is via nvmem file which has all of them together. And reference to this node is the same if used inside kernel itself.
That's why I think there is no change in connection to user space API from nvmem side. Of course entry is listed differently if you parse DT names.

Thanks,
Michal
