Either orion_spi as it was named originally, or mv_spi as Prafulla suggested. Then move mpp (pinctrl) from kirkwood_spi to corresponding boards, switch to orion_/mv_spi, and remove kirkwood_spi.
I suggest orion_spi, but Prafulla had his word so it should be mv_spi I guess.
I've given it a try and modified the Kirkwood GPIO and SPI drivers rather than duplicating their code. As I neither know the Dove SoCs nor have any hardware using them, I don't feel comfortable merging this with any existing orion code. For similar reasons and also for a lack of time I've left the MPP support code in place, just protected with CONFIG_KIRKWOOD.
As for the naming: there's already a GPIO driver called mvgpio that looks quite different from the Kirkwood / Dove one. Naming the latter one mv_gpio would work for the build tools, but needlessly cause confusion to developers. Therefore I chose to keep the current names of the Kirkwood drivers (kw_gpio, kirkwood_spi). If anyone has a better suggestion, I'm happy to change the names.
Sebastian, does the resulting code still match your intentions or would you like me to remove your Signed-off-by from those two patches when posting the updated patch series?
