Indeed it is kind of mixed up - some purely local functions (not even
passed through pointer to some ops) have prefix, some do not. If you
ask me, I would prefer to have the prefix on all of them because:
1. If they appear in call trace (where backtrace pointers are not
telling anything) it is easy to understand their location,
2. having generic name like "wait_for_dma" sounds for me like generic,
Linux-wide macro (but it is not).
However I do not insist on that.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
