In the last submission Jean proposed to change all file names from 
mtk-*.[ch] to mediatek-*.[ch] as this will cause less confusion.

Viresh are you OK with that approach or do you prefer that we stay with 
mtk prefix? I think it makes sense to have a unique prefix and resolve 
the situation we now have with source files and Kconfig options.
But TBH I have no strong feeling for any of the two prefixes.

Matthias
