Re: [rfc patch] firewire: prefix modules with firewire- instead of fw-

Of course everybody immediately associates "fw-" with FireWire, not

It's fine with me.  I like the less ambiguous names better, and I
don't think the length of the names is a problem.  If you end up
typing the module names too much, you're doing something wrong or
working on the firewire stack, in which case you're screwed anyway :)
