can kernel platform driver name be different than module name?

[Tomek The Messenger <tomekthemessenger@xxxxxxxxx>]

I suppose the response is yes but I would like to make sure:

Is below acceptable:

some_module_name.c:

#define DRIVER_NAME          "some-driver-name"

...

static struct platform_driver some_driver = {
    .driver = {
        .name = DRIVER_NAME,
        .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(some_of_match),
    },

vs

Makefile:

SRC := $(shell pwd)

obj-m += some_module_name.o
some_module_name-m := directoryInWhichThereIsUsFile/ some_module_name.o

all:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNEL_SRC) M=$(SRC)
modules_install:

$(MAKE) -C $(KERNEL_SRC) M=$(SRC) modules_install
