Okay, the whole line seemed redundant for that's always true.
I will drop it in the next version.

Agreed. I also prefer using whole name with mediatek as the
prefix than just abbreviation used. I will update it also in the
next version.

As for the file naming for other drivers, i feel it's okay for me
changing into mediatek as file prefix, but it still depends on
maintainers or original authors if they likes this.
