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,
