As discussed when that patch series got submitted, the target there is to
better organize the drivers, in order to make easier for developers to
know where the things are, and for users to help them to find their
needed drivers.
I'll be working today with the remaining patches to complete the renaming,
as it is better to apply them sooner than later, and we're early at the
development cycle.
Before applying this patch series, I applied almost all pending patches
at the tree, in order to reduce the need for patch changes. I also
reminded on IRC some developers that I was aware that they would be
having pending work.
Anyway, in order to help people that might still have patches against
the old structure, I created a small script and added them at the
media_build tree:
http://git.linuxtv.org/media_build.git/blob/HEAD:/devel_scripts/rename_patch.sh
(in fact, I created an script that auto-generated it ;) )
To use it, all you need to do is:
$ ./rename_patch.sh your_patch
As usual, if you want to change several patches, you could do:
$ git format_patch some_reference_cs
and apply the rename_patch.sh to the generated 0*.patch files, like
$ for i in 0*.patch; do ./rename_patch.sh $i; done
More details about that are at the readme file:

Regards,
Mauro
