Maybe just call the node "bus at ff63c000"?
isn't this just a name? what's the benefits to change?
personally, I tend to keep it this way, because it's better map to the
data sheet

we also has 'aobus', 'cbus' scattered there..
Per the ePAPR node names are supposed to be generic, like disk,
cpu, display-controller, gpu, etc. I've never heard of a hiubus,
so probably it's some vendor specific thing? We have the phandle
anyway so it's not like we're losing much information here.
Stephen, there is a lot of busses on platform. We can't just call them all
'bus'.
I don't get the problem with this name.
We are re-using the name from the datasheet here, no fancy invention. It seems
to be quite common. 
Ok. I'm not the maintainer of the DTS so no worries from me. I'm
just pointing out that the ePAPR says that node names should be
generic, and 'hiubus' doesn't sound generic to me. If it matches
some datasheet then I suppose that's good, but probably that sort
of distinction should have gone into the compatible string
instead of the node name.
