Now there are identifiers from hell.

- Since the invention of IDE's that can present type information, we
don't need to encode type info into the name.

- After the invention of namespaces, the world stopped embedding
scoping into the identifier name. In C scoping is reduced by having
short functions, using static, for instance. In a pinch using prefixes,
like foo_yyy for global variables can get you by.

Encoding even more information into variable names just makes
it worse.

I'm suuuuuuure he does :-) He's a smart guy and most of the
time he's right.

If Kernel programming guidelines requires variable names like that,
then I don't want to see it for OpenOCD.
