My guess is that like many other instances, it originally starts out as
an innocent copy and paste during early driver development -- hence the
desire to get the code and Kconfigs consistent tree wide.
Anyway, thanks guys for tackling the conversion ; I'll shelf this patch
and watch for the conversion to hit linux-next.
Paul.
