Are you talking about (1) a patch that just renames the most_usb.ko
file located at drivers/staging/most/usb/ or (2) a patch for the
Makefile in the staging tree, so the Kbuild system creates a new
kernel object in this branch with a different name?

(1) is easiest, do it all at once :)

Sorry for the long delay in getting to this.

This looks good to me, but I tried to apply it to my usb tree, and of
course I get the following build error:
error: the following would cause module name conflict:
  drivers/staging/most/usb/most_usb.ko
  drivers/most/most_usb.ko

So, can you just send a "rename the file" patch that I can apply against
my staging-next branch and I will take it through there so that there
are no conflicts like this?

thanks,

Nothing. This dependency is obsolete and needs to be removed.
I'll fix this up.

What does that last sentence above mean?
