Since this driver should represent not only devices manufactured by Tianma Micro-electronics, but also from other companies, it makes more sense to name it according to what driver file name already is: novatek. This does not change neither module file name nor Kconfig symbol, only driver identification in dmesg. This makes it possible to e.g. grep dmesg for "novatek" and get messages from both nt36672a-based panel and Novatek touchscreen.
