Nack. Just come up with shorter names. "mc9s08qg8-mpc8349emitx" is
simply too long to start with. Looking at the mcu_mpc8349emitx driver
you just submitted, you are clearly abusing the i2c client name to pass
platform-specific information, and that's bad. I'm not even sure why
you do that, given that all the names are then handled the same as far
as I can see.
