So namespaced function names we normally use for globally visible symbols and those are not but only driver-specific. So, for example, aspeed_edac_config_irq() is a mouthful, at least to me, and not needed. config_irq(), OTOH, is clear at a very quick glance. The others, aspeed_edac_init(), etc, you could call aspeed_init(), aspeed_exit() or so. But since you're going to be stare at that code, this was just a suggestion. Your call. :) > Does your suggestion also apply to static variables? E.g. aspeed_edac_regmap, > aspeed_edac_regmap_config, aspeed_edac_driver?
