We can remove the unnecessary "omapdss," prefix because
the omapdrm driver takes care of it when matching with
the driver table.

So is this needed as a fix or is this another clean-up?

So is this is really needed as a fix?

Hm. How do you differentiate between "fix" and "cleanup"?
Maybe it is more a wording than a content issue...

For me it is a "fix" because it is semantically wrong to have
a prefix where it is not needed. And "fixing" it changes the
compiler output by 8 bytes.

How about let's call it a "typo fix" then? :)

Well, it is not really a typo.

Well what if the stable people pick it into earlier stable series
based on the word fix in the subject? That has happened before.

I suggest you update the dts patches to use wording like
"update compatible to use new naming" or something similar.

Regards,

Tony
