Indeed the this IP from Cadence likely is used in quite a few places.
However it is usually quite difficult to figure out exactly which
version of the IP is present, what bugs/workarounds are needed, etc.

I am fine with renaming this in a more renesas-specific manner
(suggestions welcomed!). On the other hand, it would good to try and
encourage having one driver for this, rather than a bunch of
similar-but-not-quite-equivalent ones scattered about. Perhaps a
non-specific name might help?
