A question only: apart from renaming file from ni_6501.c to ni_usb6501.c, should I rename functions/variables as well? For example: ni6501_auto_attach -> niusb6501_auto_attach ni6501_private -> niusb6501_private
It's okay to abbreviate the prefix, so ni6501, usb6501 or niusb6501 would all be fine. The main purpose of the prefix is to avoid name clashes with things declared in included header files etc., and to make it easier to spot things in symbol tables, Oops messages, etc.
