Hmm. I'm not sure what the general opinion on supporting this sort of
mess up is.

Are we talking naming provided from a device tree or via old fashioned board
files?  If the board files I'd be inclined to say they are running a custom
kernel anyway so can patch this driver themselves.  If device tree I guess
we probably do need to support it - perhaps as a deprecated binding?

Wolfram / Jean - you guys must have seen this before. Did you let
the capital form in alongside the lower case one?  I guessing no ;)

I did a quick grep of hwmon and couldn't find any instances of this...
