Update the vendor prefix accordingly to reflect the new name.

Whatever about adding a new name, the old name should not be deleted
since it has users - maybe it can be marked deprecated.

Hi Conor,

Apologies for the typo. It's been a while since I last used git send-mail.

Thanks for the clarification and guidance on the rules.

I believe the nutsboard prefix is no longer in use, as the related device tree files were removed from mainline starting from kernel 6.1. Additionally, we have informed all our customers to upgrade to the new hardware. However, I appreciate your explanation and will mark the old prefix as deprecated instead of removing it.

I also have a question regarding the new prefix. The reason for this change is that we’ve developed a DRM driver, and the platform device in the driver uses a compatible string referring to the device tree. Without a vendor prefix, I’m unable to upstream the DRM driver because it lacks a valid compatible string.

How should this situation be handled? Is it acceptable to introduce the new vendor prefix first for this purpose?

An additional piece of guidance, please wrap lines in your emails.

grepping the tree disagrees with yout, there's a board still in the
tree.

A new company can have a new prefix, this patch adding it should come
with the drm device binding that uses it.

Additionally, the new name should come with a user, or a link to a user
in another project (e.g. u-boot)
