The change is good, but I have more questions now.

What about "ICH9 SMB" in hw/i2c/smbus_ich9.c?

Technically, device names are ABI.  These two are onboard devices, so
changing their names can't break -device / device_add use.  It still
could break -global use.  Do we care?

If yes, the obvious fix is to keep the old name as alias.
