I would really leave this patch out. As long as sink and source are consistently
used for pads (and they are), then I see no benefit at all to this change.

Another reason why I don't like this is that pad0_ and pad1_ are actually
confusing since they suggested to me when I first read it that pad0_ referred to
the pad with index 0 and pad1_ referred to the pad with index 1.

That's obviously not the case, but it does mean that the prefix doesn't really
make things clearer.

I would just stick with source and sink.
