s/iva2/iva/

Where this terminology can be found? I'm basing this naming on what
was there or TRM. For omap3 there is no such thing as iva, it is iva2.

IVA2 means IVA v2, before we had an IVA (v1) then IVA v1.1...

The goal is to use the same name for the IP with similar functionality across OMAPs version in order to have generic code in the driver.

IVA, IVA2, IVAHD are all doing similar things, so the only way to identify the same functionality is by using the same name. Thanks to the rev field, you can differentiate the various version during device creation. That will allow you to query the hwmod on every version of OMAPs using the same "iva" name. Otherwise you will have to use the cpu_is_omap_XXX to select iva, iva2 or ivahd depending of the SoC.

Does that make sense to you?
