The prefix is redundant. So, if you want, you can remove it.
You'd have to rename them anyway, so you could as well remove it.
The prefix removing was on my TODO since.. well.. ever? :)

Do you have applied the required ssb patches?
http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-dev/20070812-1186950057/patches/ssb-uevent.patch
http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-dev/20070812-1186950057/patches/ssb-modalias.patch
And do you have a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(ssb, footable)
in the b43legacy module?

I suggest you first apply the whole patch series from here
http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-dev/20070812-1186950057/
and make your patches on top of this.
(Note that the URL above is different from the one in my
last mail. A ssb and b44 fix was added).

The patch series applies to wireless-dev branch "everything".

Have fun.
