In the headers files, there are more occurrences with _name_priv():

# _name_priv()
git grep priv include/linux/ | grep "priv(" | grep -v get | wc -l
52

# _name_private()
git grep priv include/linux/ | grep "private(" | grep -v get | wc -l
33

# _name_get_private()
git grep priv include/linux/ | grep "private(" | grep get | wc -l
12

# _name_get_priv()
git grep priv include/linux/ | grep "priv(" | grep get | wc -l
4


What about thermal_zone_device_priv() ?
