it does seem more understandable, but now that it has been used for so
long I guess it would be nasty to change right now. Almost every one
here knows that menelaus is the companion chip for omap2 hw. Personally,
I never recall the correct number designation for menelaus.
I mean, I don't really have any problems in renaming the whole driver
from menelaus to twl92230c.c but I can't help asking myself why. If
everybody thinks it's a better choice, then why not ;-)
