So I'd like to completely drop the genX.c stuff it is not descriptive.

For example:

In other words VFE 690 and VFE 780/880 don't share the same write-master index.

So they aren't the same silicon.

I'll go and find the Kaanapali thread but the feedback here will apply there.

Name the files per their silicon version not some genX.c moniker, please.

It _looks_ like 690 and 780 will need to be separated so, I'd like to move away from this misleading genX notation - it may mean things to qcom but I feel we are burying inappropriate hacks inside of convenient gen files.
