I didn't check every instance, but a mix of those two terms seems
reasonable. "fuse" is the type of HW object; it's a generic HW term that
exists outside the scope of this patch. While the conflict with Linux's
filesystem is unfortunate, it's a name collision that I think we'll
simply have to live with; it's not created by this patch. "efuse" is the
name of the Tegra module that hosts Tegra's fuses.
