.. and I think that's simply fundamentally wrong. What does it buy us,
except for another really annoying config option? It sure as hell doesn't
buy us any code-size (what, a couple of bytes).
Quite frankly, if you want to just prepare to rename things one by one,
then you might as well just have a single line
#define bkl_ioctl ioctl
and then you can do
.bkl_ioctl = driver_ioctl
but the thing is - what does that _buy_ us without the ability to grep for
and cause compile errors for drivers that haven't done this? Nothing.
So seriously - I'd _much_ rather just get one single large patch that just
renames everything. None of this crap that makes no sense.
