Subject: Linux 5.2-rc1 - module name conflict

Hi all,

I am seeing the following warning on Linux 5.2-rc1

warning: same basename if the following are built as modules:
   drivers/regulator/88pm800.ko
   drivers/mfd/88pm800.ko

My config has:

CONFIG_MFD_88PM800=m

CONFIG_REGULATOR_88PM800=m

I don't recall seeing this warning before.

Anyway just to let you know that there is a conflict in module naming.

thanks,
-- Shuah
