O.K. The point i was trying to make is that some vendors datasheets
are not public, or very restricted, and so names don't matter, since
nobody has the datasheets. But if they are open, names are more
relevant.

I do agree that stuff can be changed when it is in an -rcX
kernel. However, it needs to be well justified, ABI related, or very
broken.

Since this is ABI, it could be changed. But i don't want to make the
decision of if it should be changed.
