Well tps* are just catalog names of the twl4* family. So you can keep adding whatever names there as long it's a same IC. Perhaps you look in hurry to comment about this. Please look at the intention of these patches. TWL6030 has PM IC similar to TWL4030 with bit different interrupt management. Audio IC is a separate one as compared to combined in case of TWL4030. If it allows code re-use by renaming files, it should be good.
