The only potentially make new users happy, but can only negatively impact existing users. The new name is not terribly appropriate either, it is using the name of the manufacturer rather than referring to a chipset or a class or chipsets. I don't see what the big deal is in leaving the name as 'stmmac' and in a way leaving it alone shows respect for the people who have worked on and cared for the stmmac driver for all of these years. Thanks.
