I'm worried that the name 'wilc' is just too generic, I liked the
original name wilc1000 much more. Quite often when we have a new
generation of wireless devices there's also a new driver, so in the long
run I'm worried that a generic name like 'wilc' could be a source of
confusion. I think it's much smaller problem if 'wilc1000' (the driver)
also supports wilc3000 (the device), people are already used to that.
And if there's ever a need for a new driver, you can call it 'wilc4000'
or whatever.

For example, I think good driver names are like 'mt76' or 'rtw88'
(currently under review).
