I had a look through the blame for vendor-prefixes.yaml since I had no
clue how easy it would be to find the marvell discussion - the commit
for gateworks' deprecated entry (done by Krzysztof says "Favor the
longer one (more descriptive)" & I think the same point is valid here.
I would have no idea what "bflb" was if I came across it in isolation!
