Makes sense. I won't say "looks good" as this file has "slave" all over the place, but I checked and it entered the kernel just before the CodingStyle changed.
SoundWire 1.2.1 introduced the terms "Manager" and "Peripheral", I had a patchset to rename everything maybe two years ago already but it's been difficult to add without getting in the way of development and backports.
Don't worry about backports for stable, we can handle that. Development for fixes or changes should NEVER worry about stable kernels, worst case, we can just take all of the same changes into them, no problem.
Maybe a gradual replacement makes more sense, not sure how to go about this.
Just rename it all.
