this is kinda useless, we can consider twl6030 as being sw compatible
(almost) with twl4030. And twl4030 driver already support plenty of
other devices, just look at drivers/mfd/twl4030-core.c lines 807 - 814.
We have twl4003, twl5030, tps65950, tps65930 and tps65920.

So IMO, renaming the files is unnecessary.
