I should have said "most obnoxious". They managed to put that terminology in filenames, eg drivers/w1/slaves and Documentation/w1/slaves In terms of number of lines of code using the word, it's only seventh in drivers/: $ for i in drivers/*; do c=$(find $i -type f |xargs grep slave |wc -l); echo "$c $i"; done |sort -rn |head 5218 drivers/net 1341 drivers/dma 988 drivers/i2c 695 drivers/gpu 666 drivers/soundwire 665 drivers/spi 559 drivers/w1 461 drivers/infiniband 389 drivers/media 301 drivers/scsi
