that's a bug in coding style.
There's no benefit to going through and changing existing code but new
code needs to be consistent with the vast majority of code in the rest
of the tree. It's about overall code base consistency and maintainability.
I don't see the point in being too picky about this. Especially
consistency is a tricky thing.
As USB has been raised in this thread already: The struct field names
in the USBDesc* structs are actually consistent. They are consistent
with the naming convention in the USB world, i.e. you'll find those
funky names like "wMaxPacketSize" in the USB specs, in the "lsusb -v"
output and probably other places too. Which makes alot of sense IMHO
and is quite convenient when hacking the USB code.
The USB naming convention and the qemu naming convention don't match, so
it is impossible to please everybody here ...
cheers,
Gerd
