I don't think I changed indentation here, and the issue is about line 
lengths, right?

Initially I chose mv egiga because the file names used egiga while the 
code used gbe, and I wanted clarity, so I decided to keep only one of 
egiga and gbe. Now which one I should keep is not really important to 
me, and a Google search for marvell egiga vs marvell gbe indicates gbe 
appears much more frequently, so someone looking into this will probably 
know "GbE" more than "egiga".

I suggest that:

- I switch the file names from mv_egiga to "mvgbe" (to be consistent 
with Prafulla's comment on mv_sata becoming mvsata), and

- I replace mv_egiga/MV_EGIGA symbols with mvgbe/MVGBE.

That will retain (as much) clarity and uniformity (as egiga does), which 
is what I think Ben is looking for, and it'll keep name length at a 
minimum, which should satisfy Prafulla.

Ben, Prafulla (and others as well, of course), do you agree?

Amicalement,
