Does the name really matter that much? I changed original ones in this 
patch simply to make it easier to grep for domain related messages in 
kernel output (e.g. dmesg | grep domain). It was not the main part of 
this patch.

Also, there are multiple devices in most domains, so that would rather 
end up being "Domain_I (JPEG, Cam I/F)", "Domain_P (2D, TV Enc., 
Scaler)", "Domain_F (Rot, Post, LCD)".

If you really insist, I can change this, but I fail to see what effect 
it would really have.

Best regards,
Tomasz
