Yours adds a new /ocotp node while my patch gives the existing
node pointed at by &ocotp an additional label and extends it.

I prefer the additional label, because it gives us flexibility
in future if upstream decides that there should be a dedicated
feature controller. In that case we would only need to move
the label instead of touching all references. see RFC patch 10/10
referenced above.

Cheers,
Ahmad
