In what aspect are they poorly named? I'd really like to keep it as
understandable as possible, at least in the device tree.

I guess renaming the sun5i dtsi already there and all that relates to
the A13 to sun5i-a13 would remove that collision of names, don't you
think? Or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Maxime
