> This first patch fixes up the directory names and the .ko name, intentionally
> ignoring the function names inside the driver for now.  Basically this is the
> simplest patch that gets the rename done and will be followed by other
> patches that rename the internal functions.
> 
> This patch also addresses a couple of string/name issues and updates the
> Copyright year.
> 
> Also, made sure to add a MODULE_ALIAS to the old name.
