Also, in addition to what Thomas said, due to the fact that all the
different groups within Intel are sending patches with model names,
please synchronize that model naming and patch sending with Tony from
now on:

https://git.kernel.org/tip/5ed1c835ed8b522ce25071cc2d56a9a09bd5b59e

He'll document the naming scheme and pay attention to what goes where so
make sure you CC him, talk to him or have him in the loop, in general.

Thx.
