Honestly?  I think so, yes.  "^setenv()$" becoming "^env_set()$" to
match the rest of the "^env_xxx()$" API makes sense to me, while
"^eth_setenv_enetaddr()$" and "^fsl_setenv_chain_of_trust()$" are other
namespaces and at least should be stand-alone patches that their
respective custodians ack and pickup.  YMMV on if those different names
make it clearer in those cases, but making it clear setenv() is part of
the env_xxx family is an improvement in my mind.  And %s/set/get/ as
well, for the follow-up patch of course.
