What naming do you suggest then?

My personal preference would be however to leave this name as is, because
this patch only adds support for the FT-X. Even if support for others can 
be added relatively trivially after this, there is explicitly no GPIO 
support for FT232R *yet*. If somebody else adds GPIO support for the FT232R
in a later patch, he/she should make corresponding adjustments themselves,
including naming changes. IMHO.

I guess you meant AND here?

Sorry, it is not clear what your preferred action here is. 
So should I leave it as is then or not?
