OCTEON TX (with the space) is the registered name of the chip. nicvf, 
zipvf, ssovf, timvf are all multiple blocks on the device and previous 
drivers were named that way. CPT is the similar name for the crypto 
block. Jerin is planning for a common naming convention for the blocks 
on the same family.

Different blocks would be named crypto_octeontx, event_octeontx etc, to 
denote that they are all part of the same device. We had to omit the 
space (between OCTEON & TX), since it would complicate the name for the 
directories.

OcteonTX is a wrong convention. It would be fixed going ahead.

This entry is already under "Crypto Drivers". So do we need a separate 
mention of "crypto"?
