We looked at how generally files were named in kernel source.
For what it's worth in my 3.16 branch:
$ find drivers/ -type f | grep '-' | wc -l 4308 $ find drivers/ -type f | grep '_' | wc -l 6507
...it seems that there are far more files named with underscores. If Greg or Arnd wants the files renamed, fine, but other than that I see no reason to change this.
