[PATCH] net: Unify user-visible "Qualcomm" name

[PATCH] net: Unify user-visible "Qualcomm" name

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Various names for Qualcomm as a company are used in user-visible config
options: QCOM, Qualcomm and Qualcomm Technologies.  Switch to unified
"Qualcomm" so it will be easier for users to identify the options when
for example running menuconfig.

Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@oss.qualcomm.com>

And "Qualcomm Technologies" has even variations over the tree:
Qualcomm Technologies
Qualcomm Technologies Inc.
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

I am doing this tree wide:

Apologies, this is a duplicate - counting mistake.

Hi Krzysztof,

Sashiko points out that QCOM is still used on the line above.

Yes, I did not unify every single text because I believe that might be
more churn and not that much benefit. I think it is more important to
have a list of drivers in xconfig or menuconfig nicely organized and the
help message matters less.

But if you wish, I can replace it there as well.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Thanks for clarifying.

I have no strong preference and am happy with this patch as-is.

I see this was marked as changes requested.
Presumably due to my previous email.
Let's see if this helps.
