As I tried to explain earlier, the reason for doing using a shorter
identifier is to improve readability of the initialisation sequence in
the new helper function added by the next patch.

It's more obvious if you compare the end result, but you can also see it
some degree for the tx/tx tables below.

Here 'tbls' is no longer significantly longer than 'tx' or 'tx_num'
which I find improves readability.

After this series, there will also be a function call that uses
arguments from the configuration struct and this one is consistently
referred to as 'cfg' rather than 'configuration' as the latter would
likewise hurt readability.

Also note that the driver already used 'tbl' consistently (e.g. see
qmp_pcie_configure() in the context at the top of the diff) until the
new tables struct was recently added.
