They touch at the same lines, but the rationale is different. Keeping
it separate is, IMHO, better, as one logical change per patch is preferred.

IMHO, that would be confusing, as this patch would be incomplete, and
the other one would be renaming from MEDIA_ENT_T_* to MEDIA_ENT_F_*
due to a reason that it is on a different patch.
