Ok, let's do that then. Do you think it's sufficient to change it on top
of the existing patch series? While I can rebase everything on top of
the rename, the header file dependencies are a bit tricky and adding
a patch at the end would make it easier to ensure that I don't
introduce any bisection issues.
