I'm fairly sure that Linus was instead waiting for you to send
a patch or pull request for the rename. Please just pick a name
that you like and that Linus hasn't already objected to and send
it so the rename makes it into -rc2 for others to base on.

If anyone has objections to the new name, you'll find out about
it then, but I think we trust your judgement here.
